It could also be nice to come along with your choice food and drinks to a party….I did this sometimes and my choice was not insignificant…I also had something to share with interested friends and party people..

Nice piece though…
Nice one.
This makes me want to go party hunting…I wouldn’t be reading and researching ingredient lists at parties though ? ?.. I’ll just enjoy the experience, good or bad… so long as the memory is there to recall in future.
