On the mainland, we often used to set a table and worked our tails off to have an appetizer, main course, salad, cooked veggie and dessert. I was always a bit stressed except with close friends who didn't care what I did. Here in Hawaii you can have a bunch of people over and not stress. You just have to make sure there's a LOT of food. It doesn't matter what, just a LOT of it.
Hmmmm... I guess that's why a lot of people here in Hawaii have two refrigerators.
You guys really live it up.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good life on the island.
Oh, my heavens, does that table of pot luck dishes look good! It would be difficult not to have a bit of each, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteIt would be a pleasure to sample that fare. Woweee.
ReplyDeleteWith so much good food on the table KAY its very sweet of you to not to forget your blogger friends...when all others have plates in their hands my thoughtful friend was busy taking pictures for us......this deserves a BIG THANKS.
ReplyDeleteGoodness gracious Kay. What a delicious looking feast! How nice that you all get together with a potluck dinner. Those are the best kind of meals. Hope you are well on the way to giving the boot the boot!
ReplyDeleteSounds like y'all had a great time! The food all looks so yummy!
ReplyDeletelooks like hawaiian hospitality-food, fun and friends.
ReplyDeleteTWO refrigerators? LOL With that kind of gorgeous hospitality, I suppose you'd need them. But, wow.
ReplyDeleteI'm hungry...
haha. Great to see, Kay. When I entertain 20 or more people, I always have it professionally catered. Less stressful that way. In the past, potluck was either insufficient or poor quality.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I own 2 refrigerators.
thanks for sharing, Kay, such a treat to behold!
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm looks yummy! And it does sound like a good life on the island!
ReplyDeleteThe only problem I have with pot lucks -- is knowing when to quit! Everything always looks so good -- and usually is!
Glad you had a great time!
Okay... my daughter put me on a diet last week-end. I was doing just fine until I opened this post! I'm literally salivating.
ReplyDeleteGonna have to say a quick goodbye before I start to look like I'm foaming at the mouth...
Holy Cow..that is a lot of food and if it's stress free all the better...

Two refrigerators is pretty standard practice in my family. I think I'm the only one who doesn't have one. Seems like there's always an old one stuck in the garage or somewhere.
ReplyDeletePot luck food is always interesting. You never know what will show up. Although I notice there is less home prepared food than there used to be.
I LOVE potlucks. Its the bomb because you get to share so many types of food with so many people. Food looks great and I'm sure you had a great time. Btw, 2 refrigerators? Seriously? 2?!! WOW =D
ReplyDeleteAloha,
ReplyDeleteCan I use the photo of the potluck for my post on potluck? I'll check back or pls e-mail me ofr your answer. Thanks :)
