[quote=Anonymous]I grew up with both planned parties and potlucks. There is a difference. Thanksgiving is unique in that people will bring dishes to an otherwise planned party, just because of sheer number of dishes that are expected. However, if the host is providing the majority of dishes, it’s a planned party. In that case, typically at the end, the host will control how the leftovers are given out— typically by asking people to take what they want, and providing the Tupperware/etc to allow guests to take what they want. If the person with the dessert really wanted to take what was left (after everyone else took what they wanted), typically that person would ask the host if they could take it back, and ask the host to please take what they want for themselves.
