Pot-unlucky

Possible reasons why nobody ate your dish at the office potluck:
  • You hovered near your dish for the entire meal, noting co-workers' reactions, serving sizes and consumption.
  • You complemented the dish with an article about the medical benefits or detriments of some of the ingredients.
  • You complemented the dish with specific instructions on preparing and eating it (Sprinkle with 1 Tb olive oil, provided, and then re-microwave for 30 seconds. Next...).
  • Bulgher wheat.
  • The loaf of white bread you brought because you didn't have funds/inclination/inspiration to bring anything else is not very festive and actually a little depressing. Sometimes it's best just to freeload.
  • Really...does anyone eat ambrosia?

My potluck dish was a bomb too. Oh well, you can't win em' all. :)

Hovering never helps. I just put it out there and hope for the best. Hey if noone eats it, that's supper!
