Somehow I never did, largely because it never came up. I always assumed my generation just doesn't do Potlucks, but as I'm typing this, maybe it's me?
Regardless, I barely cook. However, a few years ago I started baking Christmas cookies. Now I'm famous in the family for keeping the tradition alive. Long story short, Scottish shortbread cookies are my dad's favorite. But he & mom separated when we were still young. My grandma on my mother's side was the only one who had the recipe. So on years when dad was behaving, we'd have these cookies at Christmas. And vice versa. So I have a strong connection that these cookies = good times. I'm told I've gotten pretty good at making them. That, or we're just all fatties who love cookies. Could be both. =D
