Tried my aunt's potluck advice of bringing one big dish instead of three small ones, and I finally got to sit down at Thanksgiving
For years I showed up to my family's Thanksgiving in Sacramento with three separate dishes, and I spent the whole meal running back and forth to the kitchen to reheat and refill things. This past November I brought just one big tray of mac and cheese, and I actually sat at the table for the full two hours and talked to my cousins for once. Has anyone else figured out that bringing less food is the real trick to enjoying the party?
