A friend of the same name, Eric, has a man cave in which he regularly hosts a potluck dinner and conversation. However, a couple who brings store-bought food and empty containers is more generous with their leftovers, taking at least half of the remainder of the dish. This may not be the first time that a friend has taken too many leftovers. If you find these instances unacceptable, consider setting aside a portion of the leftovers for yourself before leaving home.
