[Guest guest]

I've had more suggestions for Questions of the Week, so we are getting a 2nd

one this week.

 

What are your favorite vegetarian appetizers to serve at Christmas and New

Years Eve Parties?

Do you have traditions you serve at family get together parties?

chips,

I'd have to say guacamole and chips, hummus and pita chips and I make

some of the salsa's and dips from our files. Spinach dip in a round

bread shell is a favorite of guests.

That's a fun question Judy!!!
