It was our monthly Boat Club potluck yesterday and as usual, great food was brought and shared.
Boat Club is co-hosted by friends of ours, and usually happens in the cooler months. We don't meet in the summer months, since most people have a lot going on. We meet monthly, nothing formal, just lots and lots of great food, socializing and some people also play games.
Me? I socialize, take pictures and have fun trying to come up with something new to make every month.
Cause I can.
This was my plate from last night, with a little bit of everything on it.
Just a taste of everything, well, I missed getting a piece of the chicken, but got to taste everything else.
And we had some fun stuff too.
Let me show you.
Pizza
Deviled Eggs (these are always gone before I get to them, has to be one of the most popular items brought)
Chicken Chili Taco Dip (sorry for the weird color, my camera intensifies the red/orange) But this was so good. I need the recipe. HINT!!!
Pasta Vegetable Salad, and you know I'm a sucker for Pasta, and I love this kind of salad.
Sausage and Sauerkraut. I have to admit I'm a latecomer to liking Sauerkraut, but really, I've been missing something really good, for years.
Chopped Salad, so pretty in that blue bowl. And it tasted great as well.
Fried Chicken, I missed getting a piece but I tasted a little of my SO's and it was good.
Mashed Potatoes, these were light, creamy and delicious. I love skin on mashed potatoes.
And look at the pretty bowl it was served in. I'm a sucker for pretty serving ware.
Salad with a yummy dressing, so fresh and tasty.
And the bowl it was served in. Like I said, I love pretty serving ware.
A Turtle Pie, gone before I could taste it.
And I made some Cheesecake Tarts with Partridge Berry & Cranberry topping on some and Cherry Jam on others. I'll share the recipe later on this week.

Crab Bisque, I think I could have just made a meal of this. I need the recipe for this as well.
Sausage and Sauerkraut. I have to admit I'm a latecomer to liking Sauerkraut, but really, I've been missing something really good, for years.

There was some Yellow Rice with Chicken, again, something I could have made a meal of.
Served with Black Beans and onion
Chicken with Snap Peas and Beans, a southern thing, and was very nice.
And the bowl it was served in. Like I said, I love pretty serving ware.
Santa and his pineapple made an appearance.
And I did not forget the Brisket. I'm just kicking myself I didn't take a picture of it before it was carved. I was too busy snitching tastes.
Well... I had to, Quinn carved off bite size pieces, and I was not about to say no. And boy was it good.
There was also Desserts.
A Lime Poke Cake, notice the green for St. Patty's Day.
Rice Krispie Bars with chocolate frosting. Little bites of richness. A Turtle Pie, gone before I could taste it.
And I made some Cheesecake Tarts with Partridge Berry & Cranberry topping on some and Cherry Jam on others. I'll share the recipe later on this week.
And that is the round up for this month.
Somehow I don't think I want much to eat today, I had lots last night.
Hiya Sid! That all looks so good - a true feast. :) I love your little boat shaped cheesecake tarts - can't wait for the recipe for those to show up! :D
