FBM Holiday Potluck 2011

As loyal readers of Feisty Foodie know, the FBM likes to get together for a potluck every couple of months. Since we are in the middle of the holiday season, it was time for our now annual FBM Holiday Potluck. We all had a good time last year and were looking forward it again. This time around CT & I hosted at our apartment. It was only fair since Hungry and Beer Boor has hosted on multiple occasions previously. CT made jambalaya with chicken, shrimp and smoked chorizo. She has been tweaking this recipe for a while now, so it [...]

FBM Potluck #7

My FBM family is awesome, as are our once-every-few-months potlucks.  October’s potluck took place at Beer Boor’s, and as usual… I was the first to arrive.  My artichoke gratinata, which I took issue with the way it came out, but I always hate what I make so I try to keep quiet and let other people just eat it.  If they like it, great.  If not… well… I didn’t like it either.  My kickin’ chicken, which was unevenly spiced unfortunately… I heard someone comment that they got a big chunk of spice in one bite but the rest was a [...]

Labor Day – Impromptu FBM Potluck

I have some of the most amazing, awesome friends in the world.  I’ve mentioned a few times here – and I’ll continue to mention as it’s true – that I’m recently going through a bit of a rough patch.  Without my friends to support and encourage me, I really don’t know where I’d be.  As it happens, I asked them about the Friday before Labor Day weekend, to see if anyone wanted to go to a movie, but Hungry one-upped me and suggested we watch movies at her place.  So we had an impromptu potluck.  Upon arrival, our esteemed hostess [...]

FBM – Poolside BBQ Potluck

As usual, my lovely group of friends gathered for a potluck – this one of EPIC proportions.  Why?  Because we had a grill.  And a pool.  And… more.  I was going to snap a photo of the area for y’all to envy, but then I realized… I’d rather not share that photo with the internet at large.  BF was generous enough to host us all at his lovely home, and as he’s a way more private person than I am when it comes to the internet… let’s not push it.  Just know that the area we used had a gas [...]

FBM Potluck #6 – The Rapture

Marking a year since that very first, fateful potluck, we threw another May potluck, again on our gracious host, Hungry‘s rooftop.  It happened to coincide with The Rapture, which just made it that much more fun.  I’ve been playing with making my own cocktails, creating a ‘signature cocktail’ for the past few potlucks.  This time, I dubbed my creation Mango Tango, and it couldn’t have been easier to make.  I think it was pretty good, too – we went through them rather quickly, and people got good and toasty off them.  (That’s my mark of a good cocktail – it [...]
