Freewrite: Funeral Potato Contest Day!

Today at the Deseret Book corporate building, we had a funeral potato contest! A few months ago, they asked readers to submit their best funeral potato recipes. Then we DB employees each made one of the recipes, brought the results in to work today, and tasted them all so we could vote for the top five.

This is the one I made. It's a green onion potato casserole with French onions on top. It could have used some salt but it was so good!
 Needless to say, it was a great day.



Of course, some recipes were better than others.

This one...was not good. Word spread quickly and hardly any of it was eaten. Thankfully, Kelsey's husband is vegan, so he'll appreciate the leftovers.  


...Sorry PJ. :)


Are you hungry yet?





It was a great way to socialize with everyone in the building (though we were missing quite a few people who were trying to stay updated on the US vs. Germany match).

I finally got a picture of everyone on the LDS Living team! 
Yes, I even got Preston. Eventually. :)



Can you tell which ones were crowd favorites? 

In conclusion, if you every need to make funeral potatoes in the near future (...hopefully not for actual funerals...), I've got some great recipes for you! The winning recipes will be printed in a future issue of LDS Living.

In the meantime, we all have tons of leftovers. Especially Kelsey.
