Austin Food Bloggers' Potluck - Version Picnic

Ah, spring. Let me count the ways that I love thee. I shall celebrate thee by attending a food bloggers' potluck, oh yes I shall.

Thanks to our fearless leader, Addie Broyles, the Food Bloggers' Potluck made a comeback for 2010 in the form of a picnic at Patterson Park. As seems to frequently be the case when it comes to food blogger potlucks, I was really late, but I still got to see lots of my food blogger friends and make a few new ones. Here's a little glimpse of some of the tasty treats that graced the picnic table:

This strawberry-rhubarb pie was absolutely divine. I am really, really hoping that the woman who brought it, Shelley from FranishNonSpeaker, might post her recipe (pleeeaaaase?)!

If you want some real potluck eye candy, be sure to check out the gorgeous event photos taken by Aimee Wenske on her blog!

  11. Thanks the pictures are fantastic. I had the best time meeting everyone. Yes it's me (new to the group) that made the un-orthodox greek empanadas. Glad you enjoyed them. All the food was soooo delicious, can't wait for the next one. Kristina aka girlgonegrits.

  12. Kristina, I wish I'd had an opportunity to meet you at the potluck! BTW, this group never shies away from unorthodox. Deliciousness is more important - which these empanadas most certainly were! I'll edit the photo to add a proper credit. Thanks for visiting!
