just few days from now, we are going to celebrate Christmas. as a tradition, in our family, we get together on 24th and have pot-locks. we usually bring spaghetti or salad. i wish we can bring something special on that day. like baked lasagna or baked macaroni. but it takes time and of course budget that is good for everybody (25 people).i am excited to eat and taste special home-cooked meals again. how about you?are you going to prepare something special? or just ordinary recipes?

hi. potluck is bringing food in one place. you bring food as your share in the celebration. maybe we have different culture. happy new year!

Hi donnakristel. Like you, I am looking forward to celebrate Christmas with my family. I want to eat foods which are really special and delectable. I really set aside money for that celebration. I am planning to cook spaghetti (which is the favorite of my boyfriend), grilled pork and chicken, ice cream, and mango float. I think these foods are already enough and are special for me. These might sound ordinary for some people but I think the most important part of this celebration is to eat all of these with our family and loved one, right? Merry Christmas in advance to you. Happy myLotting too
