Cris & Ray's* End of Year Student Potluck 2013

To celebrate a challenging but rewarding year YOU ARE FORMALLY INVITED (!!!) to come to our house in Villa Urquiza (Capital), for a Potluck lunch on Sunday, Dec 15th at 12hrs.

If you don't know what a Potluck is, it derives from Elizabethan England when guests would be welcome to eat whatever was left in the stewing pot over the fire (stewing for weeks….yum). That was the POT and if they had LUCK they wouldn't die.

Alas in the C21st we've become a bit more refined (and less disease-ridden and smelly!) and nowadays one does this kind of thing…http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potluck 

Your `pot' can be for ONE of the following  and should serve between 3-5 adults.

(we'll take care of beverages).

  1. A main dish (eg. a pie)
  2. Something to accompany (a salad, dip, etc.)
  3. Something for dessert.

IMPORTANTE: form yourselves into groups of 3 or 4 to produce your pot - one pot per group. Do not bring food for 5 adults on your own or we will be swamped with food!!

Please RSVP and let us know what you intend to bring so we can make sure we've got balanced offerings.

 *(That's Dr Cristina Banfi and Dr Ray Day in teacher-speak)
