Nikki's Tiny Foods birthday potluck (6 weeks after the fact!)

I love gatherings built around food. I love potlucks. I love themed dinners. When my friend Nikki decided that her birthday party would also be a tiny foods potluck, I was instantly excited! There was a good combination of foods that were made in small version and foods that could be taken in small servings. It was nice to be able to fill up our little plates and wander around the kitchen and dining room, building tasting plate after tasting plate. Everything was good!

Here's my contribution: Pork and vegetarian lumpia with duck sauce. You can fold your lumpia from corner to corner or from end to end. If I have a vegetarian filling, I fold corner to corner and tell diners to look for the "v" of the outside corner--v for vegetarian!
