What a PotLuck!!

So, three people who've barely known each other for three weeks, decided to get together to throw a potluck party, that took place last night. And What a Potluck it was!
The amount of good food, (some brought their self-cooked culinary delights, while others just bought ready-made food; eitherways it was a delicious spread), the variety of alcohol, the wild games we played, "Psychiatrist" and "Truth or Dare", the zonked people we met and the random dance steps, all ensured the party was a blast that we would remember for a very long time to come. A stay-over after ages, and fun conversation in the morning over breakfast and coffee, made this one of the longest parties I've attended/ co-organized in a while.
A fun night with a great set of friends; here's hoping for many more to come!
Special Mentions: (in alphabetical order)
1. Amit: For bringing the tastiest samosas I've had in this country and his willingness to bring us our much-needed morning cup of joe.
2. Apoorva: For co-organising the party and her special management skills that directed Saurabh in the kitchen to cook the Lemon Rice.
3. Ashish: For the amusing choreography with even more amusing nomenclature and tasty gulab-jamuns. Also, for providing the funniest moment of the night, when he fell, while performing the 'lawn-mower'.
4. Czaee: For introducing "psychiatrist" into the evening and her sporting performance on the 'dare'.
7. Daljeet: For being a good DJ for some part of the evening and then showing us his wild and terrifying (to some) side.
8. Raj: For unbelievably tasty Gobi Manchurians that commanded unanimous adulation.
9. Saurabh: For the only person who cooked/ partially cooked, non-vegetarian (Chicken Curry) and vegetarian (Lemon Rice) dishes for the party.
10. Shiv: For his gracious hospitality, never-ending supply of drinks and delightful breakfast of Kokila-Ben-made Idlis this morning.
11. Supriya: For providing mouth-watering kababs.
and last but not the least:)
12. Me: For acting like a Chief Guest at my own party as a co-host; as Apoorva correctly pointed out, arriving late and leaving earliest:) (I was the first one to hit the sack).

Undoubtedly the party was a blast! I thoroughly enjoyed cooking the Gobi Manchurian for you guys and would love to do it again.

Sweetoo, next time please be "at" the party in order to enjoy it :)

the party was a blast indeed. i don't think i've been to many potlucks that last close to 24 hours. shweta is sweet to give any credit to me for organizing, i basically just showed up early, and she did all the real work. and shiv was an exemplary host.

p.s. you've probably figured out this is apoorva, just posting as anonymous because i'm too lazy to sign up for an account.

p.p.s. would i be a real writer if i didn't point out that R comes before S in the alphabet?!!
