Jason's right about only two dishes last year. But I heard three families on our street bought air fryers this month alone!

Maybe it's just me but I saw a real shift this year. The Davis family did those amazing crispy Brussels sprouts, and the Millers brought air fryer chicken wings that were gone in minutes. Cora's point about three new ones on the street fits, it feels like a tipping point. Even the store-bought stuff got a quick reheat to make it better. The vibe was definitely different from last year's mostly cold spread.

Last year's block party had exactly two air fryer dishes out of twenty. Most people just brought the usual store-bought pies and cold pasta salads. Calling this a revival is a bit of a stretch.
