congratulations on your new job!

As for potlucks, I always take something low carb so that I know I will have
something good to eat. Usually there are a lot of low carb foods available.

ideas:

7 layer salad (everyone always loves this)
deviled eggs
roll ups with ham, cream cheese and a pickle or green onion inside
chicken
geesh, my brain isn't working this morning. Sorry i can't come up with more
ideas right now.

Crustless quiche went over well (even w/ some people who said they don't
like quiche)

For a dessert party, I brought mixed berries, mascarpone and put packets
of sweetener next to them. It was quite popular.


most people don't care about what YOU are eating, they are more concerned with
what they are going to eat. If they question you, just say you're avoiding
sugar.


Usually, if you've got a a reasonably well stocked plate, people won't
even notice the particulars.
