Pot luck with the over 65 crowd

Last week at work I was invited by the ladies who run the Thrift Store at the church to join them at their yearly potluck. I wasn't given a lot of notice so I couldn't contribute something BUT I did join them for lunch.

There are a couple of menu items that mark a pot luck as a church potluck. One is deviled eggs and egg salad sandwiches. Have to have those at a church pot luck. The other is very very strong tea (we've talked about that before).

But what marks a church potluck as one that the average age of the participants is 70 is jellied salad. Oh yes, jellied salad. This one had green jello with carrots in it. hmmmmmmm.

Now don't get me wrong . I LOVE JELLO and I also like carrots a lot. But together? ummmmmmm no.
