Potlucks rule - do you have a Potluck Ruler?

We all enjoy a nice potluck event. They are a wonderful opportunity to share food and conversation about food with our colleagues, and maybe exchange a recipe or two along the way.

Who is in charge of organizing your potlucks? Do you have a Potluck Queen or King? Think of the fun you could have. The potluck doesn't begin until the Queen or King arrives in the Potluck Parade attended by their retinue, contributors, hangers-on and paparazzi. There could even be showers of ticker-tape (or confetti from the shredder) to honor their entrance; or how about a chorus of cell phone ring tones. The Queen and/or King reads a Royal Proclamation announcing the beginning of the potluck and then the event commences.

If at any time and for any reason your Potluck Royalty decide to abdicate, there can be an Official Passing of Potluck Ladle to the successor - at, of course, a Potluck!

I want to thank my friend Traci Villa for first calling my attention to the idea of Potluck Queen!
