American supper

[MontyVeda]

I don't think "American supper" refers to American food. Rather just a name for everyone bringing a dish. So bring anything you like

My Mum (living near Lancaster like @MontyVeda ) also calls it a Jacob's Join. Wonder if it's a local name?

Quaker thing I guess.... just googled and found this.

Been making the recipe below for years, love it and seems quite apt

Just take sausage rolls, but don't forget to douse the meat of a few with a hot sauce for that amusing 'tabasco surprise' moment.

Mince pies home made of course, the fact some may contain cotton wool or baked beans instead of mincemeat is nothing to do with me.

A large lasagne and banoffee pie, or a bit pot of curry or chilli.

[QUOTE 3436335, member: 76"]Just get a pile of left over rubbish food, put it on a tray/dish and go to the party. Get MrsAud to ring the bell while you are faffing about at the car then turn around wave hi to the host and drop the tray of unedible crap in a comedic manner. Then scrabble around saying 'I can't believe I have just done that, it's all ruined' and scoop it into a bin bag, throw the bag in the car, swearing a bit, and your host will be gutted for you. Social faux pas avoided, no money wasted on food, everyone feels sorry for you....win win win

It also works with empty wine bottles that you fill with water at a bring a bottle party, you just have to drop it out of smelling range or add a dash of wine to make it smell winey.....apparantly [/QUOTE]

Brilliant. pmsl

Order a pizza to be delivered to the party

If you want to be literal, taco dip is easy and nice, take some crisps and chopped veg.
