Now I have today's potluck to cook for.. Not chili.. I think I will make chicken breasts and braised spicy potatoes.... There are 140 people at tonight's potluck and some are overlaps from last night's 120 people..

I can't bring the same thing two nights in a row.. :)

5. As the oprganizer, I am a "main dish" person
I relented and am making tri tip after all.. I have 4 of them on the grill as I type.. Now I have to peel potatoes..yuk :(..
