In all fairness, Publix sells relatively better dessert items than most other grocery stores.

[@lelandconner3337]

OMG. The bakery and deli are why I'd go to Publix. The smell of that from chicken....from the parking lot. You know where you are or it's not growing up in Florida (or your part of the South) without it. So many memories from that chicken. 🤤😍🍗

[@biskitgravyyum6478]

Truer than anyone would like to admit. Hilarious. I think I can see a bit of me in each of these ladies. Last potluck our church had, the church decided not to provide the meat. The ladies organizing it were so afraid there wouldn't be enough and forgot to trust in the Lord. We wound up having a gentleman in the congregation provide fried chicken, one lady made sloppy joes, another made ham and turkey sliders, someone brought chicken pot pie, two crockpots full of meatballs, a chicken and noodle casserole, and I think there was even a lasagna. Needless to say, our protein choices were more than adequate. Veggies were sorely lacking.

[@lorireed8046]

Now how you gonna have a chicken pot pie, sloppy joe or a lasagna without veggies??? There were plenty of veggies there.

[@charlibrown7745]

If you can keep a potluck up like that you might solve the issue of lack of men in the Christian church. I think this needs to catch on!

As a southerner and a fan of the housewives oeuvre, make this a mini series. Include housewives tropes as the woman who is trying to raise money for charity and all the ladies talk about how bad her event is, the woman who is trying to be an entrepreneur and makes everyone use her items/attend her events, the socialite/life of the party (the one who gets drunk, doesn't understand personal space), the matriarch who gets involved in everyone's drama and tries to solve problems while meddling herself, the one who thinks she's too classy for potluck events and brings catered food (but it's from Costco), the one from the well known famous family (who might be the black sheep if they have a mugshot but it's okay they are ~saved~), the one who is a no-nonsense, hard worker who has little patience for others yet has marital issues. I could go on about tropes in the housewives series. But you should have confessional interviews with women who say salty southern things about the other ladies. And maybe a reunion episode where a preacher asks questions by other ladies in the congregation.
