Potluck

Dear Sis,

We joined the Trenton Historical Society last summer. Tonight we went to a potluck dinner. Most members are retirees, so its like a room full of friendly grandparents. William loved all the attention! They were even sweet enough to have a dish of beef along side the pulled-pork entree.

We Brought:

Chicken Salad Apple Rings

Slow Cooked Sandwiches

Dear Sis,

This week we tested hot dogs and meatball hoagies in the slow cooker. I’ve always done them on the range, so I wasn’t sure how long we’d need to have them in before the party.

Hot Dogs need a two hour head start, and then will keep the duration of the party on warm.

I put frozen meatballs in the slow cooker and covered them with jared sauce.

Again, a two hour head start is plenty, to get the meatballs good and hot for the party.
