i for one would be interested

ooh Deviled eggs aka "the way to use up 'old eggs' and never have left overs" (after a hurricane (in FLA)) we lost power
had just bought 2 full sheets (50 eggs) for the family and i spent 2 hours boiling eggs over an open fire and making deviled eggs

5 people family, 5 hours later there were no more deviled eggs


for Holidays if i do a large celebration i often do potluck and 'everything goes doggy bag' (as posted above)
Everyone brings something, and at the end of the day everyone takes the left overs home (not their own but a mix)

or me and the people will just set up a 'ticket price'
i'll do the work for free but the ingredients cost
and then people can trade 'work' or 'ingredients' towards the ticket price

it's not really that hard to set up and it makes it fair, some people complain, usually ones that have never been short on money

i prefer the potluck though cause one gets to taste other recipes (and potentially steal them..the recipes)
