Winter Pot Luck
Coming back from the Holidays, the foodies wasted no time in partaking in a shared meal of thanks. On Wednesday January 2, 2008, the foodies broke bread at Cisco's Galapagos Conference Room. It was a successfull event attended by many luminaries of the Sales Crediting department who each brought a dish/dessert. We were even graced with the appearance of Vincent and Caitlin Ho, who came far and wide and passed on their afternoon nap!!! just to experience this momentous occasion.
Gia brought beef stew and french bread. David, Irwin, and Aaron T each brought whole chickens, grilled to perfection. Dennis brought adobo. Yeelo brought crab dip made with a secret recipe than can never be divulged--only one other person in the galaxy has this. Laureano brought Lumpia, complete with sweet and sour sauce. Aaron D brought some wraps for all the vegetarians in the group. And finally, Christina brought some spicy enchiladas. But that's not all, a whole train of desserts came our way. Saba brought brownies, Aaron S brought flan and Laureano brought banana turon. One phrase expressed all our sentiments. We were stuffed.
The event ended with a racuous game of White Elephant with the winning prizes being DVD's, Saki drinking cups, wine, etc. Each player put on their game face. The atmosphere was very tense and competitive, but in the end everyone came out a winner with loot in hand. The team staggered back to their desks full, suffering from a serious case of the food coma. The Winter Pot Luck was very successful indeed. Special thanks to all that participated!
Please stay tuned for our Eurasian adventure on Thursday...
