1 day agoOur Spring Cookbook Potluck Was a Salad Fest
A potluck party was organized to celebrate new cookbooks, featuring diverse dishes prepared by staff from the selected titles.
I can't help but think of this time a year ago when I was looking forward to a party we'd planned. I didn't know it was the last one we'd host for so long. When I look back at what I cherish and miss the most about what we did during pre-pandemic life, gatherings small and large are high on the list.
My social circle mainly consists of Gen Zers and young millennials who are early-career professionals, first-generation immigrants, pursuing further education, or raising small children. We also happen to live in the California Bay Area, where the median income of over $120,000. Being frugal doesn't mean we cannot have a great Christmas gathering. It just means we have to reset our expectations and values, and prioritize what matters the most to us: time with each other.
Whether you're headed to a potluck or hosting a big dinner party at home, the last thing you want is your carefully prepared food getting cold before you can serve it to guests. Investing in one simple, affordable kitchen appliance - a slow cooker - will allow you to make effortless side dishes. One of the absolute best uses for your slow cooker is keeping side dishes warm while maintaining their taste, quality, and texture.
