Run out of food at a potluck? Not in the south. I've never been to a potluck where there wasn't a lot of food left over. People are begging others to take as much as they wanted home. People scrape the food in the bin to get their pot washed to take home. A small casserole is rarely seen, it is two lasagna dishes full of it. And you never ever not return a potluck dish to the rightful owner. You will always be the person who kept Mildred's dish. LOL
