I'm on crutches. Was planning to take a baked brie but don't feel like standing in the kitchen to make it. Someone will already do chicken nuggets. Have any ideas for a hot appetizer or something people will like i can pick up on the way?

Are potlucks normal for work parties? Can't say I've ever seen it.

I work in a school district and our department (24 people, plus a few extras that get included) is VERY close. Our newest staff is 2-3 years in and the longest ones have over 30 years. This is a fun annual get together with food and white elephant gift exchange at someone's home. Not the typical mandatory work afternoon event.

Oh well that's good to know. I'm glad you guys have that kind of comradery.
