A Little Sidebar! Halloween Fun!!

We love to entertain, in fact, years ago we used to have an annual Halloween Party for our neighbors and friends. Everyone would dress up, kids and adults alike! I remember one year we had 16 people come as pirates.

We would cook and prepare appetizers and munchies for all the guests starting in August.  We would quite literally fill our freezer with containers and pull them all out for the party! All the dishes were named along a scary Halloween theme. We had bacon wrapped cockroaches and witch’s fingers, to name a couple.

Everyone loved it and they loved the food too! Entertaining can be easy and much less stressful if you are prepared and organized. A small amount of pre-planning goes a long way to ensuring that both you and your guests have a really fabulous time.  And, after all, isn’t that why we throw parties in the first place, to have fun!

So eat, drink and be merry this holiday season!
