~ Yes, something for everyone that way.

It is fun on those domino party nights.

None of us eat a sit-down dinner on those

evenings, but we sure get enough to eat just

nibbling those snacks all night long in between

our games. *lol*

~ Oh yeah! i forgot to tell Robin about all the hot

and cold dips and spread recipes. That pizza one

is always a big hit with both kids and adults.

Here it is re-posted:

 

Pepperoni Pizza Dip

 

1 package (8oz) cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup sour cream

1/8 tsp oregano

1/8 tsp garlic powder

1/8 tsp cayenne pepper

1/2 cup pizza sauce

3/4 cup finely chopped green pepper

10 vegetarian pepperoni slices, quartered

1/4 cup sliced green onions

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Toasted bread rounds or breadsticks

 

In a mixing bowl, combine the first five ingredients.

Spread into an ungreased 9-inch pie plate. Cover with

pizza sauce; top with green pepper, pepperoni and

onions. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Sprinkle

with cheese. Bake 5 to 8 minutes more or until cheese

is melted. Serve with bread rounds or bread sticks.

Yield: 8 to 10 servings

~ That is a very good idea. Crushed candy bars,

cookies, toppings etc. Also build your own taco

salads are nice for a more food-like less sweet idea.

Any sort of customized build-your-own dish works

well for party gatherings.

My daughter is a pesca-pollo omnivore. She basically

just abstains from eating furry critters. i think one

day she will quit eating them as she has developed

a discriminating palate that enjoys healthy vegetarian

cooking. My son is a big challenge though. He doesn't

like most vegetables no matter what. i sneak them in

on him as much as i can get away with.

He is wicked fussy!

Doctor,

if only you could see

how heaven pulls earth into its arms

and how infinitely the heart expands

to claim this world, blue vapor without end.
