I knew it wasn't the mayo. I didn't think it was the potatoes (in salad) either, so it's germs introduced into the dish. I was already thinking I'd just open a new jar to make sure my mayo was 'clean' as could be.
Appreciate the clarification, and no, my stuff will not be sitting out for hours breeding who knows what.
Deviled eggs are lucky to last a half hour. LOL!

Humus is Latin for earth, ground, soil, dirt, dust. From dust and to dust. Nos habebit humus... shades of Gaudeamus... Ahem... I take it you require no explantion of the culinary meaning of the word. :-)

Carol may not require an explanation, but I sure do. I have never heard Gaudeamus used in reference to culinary pleasures,
Not Gaudeamus, humus! And not Latin, Arabic! Ha!

as a matter of fact, the only times I ever heard or sang it was in "Gaudeamus Igitur, Juvenus dum sumus".
That's where "nos habebit humus" comes from. Ah, and it is good to see that I'm not the only one left who still remembers the song... Sometimes it is nice to be 84... I've known it by heart since the age of about 8 (not hard to remember, the song being so short).
A good humus (the dish) is something that may well elicit cries of "Gaudeamus!".

Also, there is the Viennese expression Gaudee, meaning "fun", usually a noisy fun and seems to come from the same root. Gaudee means Hetz.

(laugh) The devilled eggs went over very well, there were some left over but that's because I brought a dozen egg's worth ... 24 extra large eggs and 7 people. They are in the hostess's refrigerator now.
I also made a quiche type thing using asparagus. It was very good but way flat. I do not know what I did wrong to make it flat, it sunk on the ride over. (laugh) Thinking about it now, it got even flatter as time went by. Oh well.
The idea was cobbled together from a few suggestions youns gave me, I really thank you for the help.

Since I remember the song to be long, I just Googled it. It is far from short
And no, except for the first couple of lines, I do not remember the rest. I don't believe I ever heard or knew more than the first stanza. I do know that I resented terribly that my sister started learning Latin in fifth grade and I learned French instead.
Most of it is 18th century additions. The original song is stanzas 2 and 3, plus the famous stanza 1, of which no one seems to know when it's originated.
I'm going to a baby shower this Sunday, my brother and his wife are expecting their first. Very exciting. I'm not sure what the deal is with the shower as far as food goes, I am just going to bring devilled eggs and I hope a couple other appetizers.
