Meeting/Potluck - May 5, 2011

Mingling & Munching

Over 20 people came to the potluck, over-ate, socialized, played pool, and even talked some business. Sean and Burcu were the perfect hosts, and Sean had lots of help barbequeing . A few people, got lost, but made early enough for lots of food. Dre, Julie, and Rashel marvel at Courtney's world-famous fruit pizza when it arrived, while Mark just relaxes or a minute. A few people started congregating in the kitchen, which drew a few more. But, eventually thing moved downstairs and started waiting for the food table to fill it, which it quickly did. And, once it did, there were some happy people and Emma, Taylor, Mary and others did their part in making it disappear. The pool table was irresistable, and Wayne, Mike, and Sandrah take a rest for a minute waiting for Sean to take his shot. Mary & Katie make friends before the evining is over, and everybody left well-fed and waiting for the next potluck! Unfortunatetly, we didn't get pictures of everybody or of all the food. The tabouli, spinach pie, fruit pizza, Italian beef, burgers, pita & hummus, bean salad....and a half-dozen desserts were just part of what we munched on. Thanks to all those who came out, and especially to Sean and to Burcu for her delicious cooking!
