Card Party Foods

Yesterday was my day to host my friends for an afternoon of Canasta.

I served green grapes and popcorn (Kornutopia brand)  while we played.

During halftime we had glazed appetizer meatballs, potato chips with dill dip, crackers and a variety of cheeses.

After the game came dessert, a one-layer German Chocolate cake.

It was a beautiful day, sunny and bright and in the high 70's.

Last week my friend Ida made a delicious chicken salad served on  toasted baguette slices,an item I'll replicate in the future.

Mindful of keeping the hands "non-stick"  my 5 day a week (pre-pandemic) bridge playing stepmother reports bck with thumbs up on things like quiche bites. No crumbles/flakes. They don't do "half-time". - any break is reserved for old lady bathroom scurries. @lindag yours sounds like quite the party feast.

I’m planning this week’s card party for Saturday.

Big platter of mixed fruit:   Melons,  kiwi, mango, strawberries,, cherries, pineapple and peaches.

Caramel corn (non-sticky).

Marionberry pie with vanilla ice cream

Drinks will be cold-brew iced coffee, Coke and lemonade...it’s supposed to be quite warm that day.

Here’s hoping all the fruit is ripe in time.

Yum.
