For this potluck, bring a dish suitable for a warm summer's evening. Pierre Blackwell will be cooking the meat, provided by the Stronghold.
For inspiration, consider what would be good for a bucolic evening picnic in fairieland. Choose the category you identify with most. Regular humans are just that, regular happy folks. Higher humans, well they can always see the fairies. Lower humans just want to have fun. Pixies, Fairie Folk and Fairie Royalty are just what the categories sound like. Have fun and let's make this a feast to remember.

Please include a card with the ingredient list, so as not to poison our friends.

If you need some easy options, consider signing up to bring a loaf of bread, a board of cheeses, or fresh fruit/vegetables.

The kitchen has a standard fridge/freezer, and a long serving cabinet with plugs for crockpots.
