It’s the adult equivalent of being picked last in sports: that frightening moment when the dish you brought isn’t being served or eaten at a party
It’s the adult equivalent of being picked last in sports: that frightening moment when the dish you brought — one you either slaved over or bought last minute in a panic at a grocery store — isn’t being served or eaten at a party.
Be kind to yourself, though. If you’re in this situation, you’re at least mature enough to know to bring something as an offering to a party, even if that something is just a hodgepodge of what you already have at home. Maybe those baby carrots or that one beer or the lamp. It’s a nice lamp; who wouldn’t enjoy the party more because of that lamp?
But then something happens as the evening progresses: the dish, so appreciated initially, doesn’t reappear. You keep gazing toward the kitchen hoping it will emerge. You flash back to the time you went to pick up your sexy ex at the airport, only they never showed up; once again you’re stuck, alone and limply holding a sign that says “Casserole.” A day-long event full of talks, workshops, and really good foodactually served on the snack table and no one touches it.
Once they know its food, you can start creating buzz. It’ll probably be too late in the evening to get the local paper to list your casserole as the hottest dish in the city, but it’s rarely too late for word of mouth.
