I love this sooo much! I recently realized it had been ages since we've had anyone over for dinner and I really miss it — this is such a fun way to make that happen. ALSO my favorite-ever meal I've cooked for my extended family was a Spanish tapas feast, but it literally took the entire day to prepare: I love the idea of kind of assigning the dishes out as a potluck plan!
I really like the idea of a semi-structured potluck. I'm reminded of my last one, where I asked people to bring vegetarian sides. Someone brought smoked fish. Um, hello? Next time, I think I'll either nicely assign dishes, or ask ahead of time what people are bringing. It can get to be a pain when some guests are on a restricted diet (my husband: celiac disease) so having a medley of options where people can just pick and choose is really ideal. Yum!
I need this bi-weekly potluck schedule! I’ve committed to throwing at least one party a month this summer, and I’m working on convincing friends to do the same, and potlucks are really the solution.

Omg a tapas feast would take me out - but is the absolute perfect thing to potluck!
It was really fun but I was literally cooking nonstop for like six hours 😂

I lol’d at the smoked fish
Long live the potluck!
The standing date is such a good thing. Scheduling is exhausting and it's so nice to just have a plan that doesn't take a million date-finding texts.
Agree!! I get overwhelmed by my calendar sometimes
Our collective consciousness demands more together time and I’m here for it!
Where are all these potlucks??? Please let me know, ill bring my dslr and create content
Too good 💕
Too true
I love having guests bring food it's so fun to see what everyone comes up with
Thanks for the recommendations! I'm currently on a healing journey back into food so looking for great book recommendations! Will give these a go!
thought the flex was the moment you pull out Everdell and teach everyone how to play
Only a select few ever make it through the instructions, you know this
