“Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.”  ~ Robert Collier

Good relationships are an essential part of a good life. All relationships need fostering or they slowly die. One of the things my family practices to maintain and grow our relationships with family and friends is a regular event we call “Experiment with food Sunday”. Simply put, it’s a potluck with untried recipes. It’s designed to be special yet simple. Everyone brings a dish, we use disposable products so clean-up is minimal. If the house is not in perfect shape, so what? It tends to be an early night since the work week starts the following day. 

It has become such a requested fixture that when family comes in from out of state or my niece comes in from college, we make sure “Experiment with food Sunday” is on the agenda. If some of the recipes don’t work, don’t worry. It’s all part of the fun. The laughter, fellowship, and creative component make this event a winner for us. Get “Experiment with food Sunday” regularly in your planner and you’ll be another step closer to “getting a life”.

“Do not fear mistakes. You will know failure. Continue to reach out.”  ~ Benjamin Franklin
