Bringing Refreshments
Some parties are "pot luck" or "covered dish" affairs. The idea is that everybody brings something. Sometimes the person giving the party will assign various types of food (breads, beverages, pasta, dessert) to different people to assure a variety. If a party is given on a B.Y.O.B. basis (it means "bring your own bottle") you'll be expected to bring a beverage, often alcoholic. Next Section: Card and Game Parties Everyday Life: Chapter Home
