Julia Chow was more than happy to help me out with all the prep work for the party. My floor was immaculate all day!
I made Scotch Eggs. Of course I forget to take pics of half of the stuff I made and I forgot to take a pic of these when they were finished. They are hard boiled eggs wrapped in sage flavored sausage then rolled in cracker meal and baked at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. You cut them in half and serve with hot sauce. Take my word for it, they looked great and tasted better!
At my daughter's request I made Rice Krispy Treats. I don't really enjoy making these because let's face it, they aren't very challenging and melting the marshmallows is boring to say the least. However, they were a huge hit as usual. I double the marshmallow part of the recipe which makes them much better than if you follow the traditional one.
I know...here it is again! I baked a loaf for both kids. This bread should be baked for it's aroma alone. It could be sold as an air freshener. I took two loaves of this to my friend the other day and she said that her house smelled wonderful for two days.
I think I made a thousand of these. At least it felt like I did. They are worth the time and effort. Stuffed jalapenos with cream cheese, Lil' Smokies and wrapped in bacon. People eat these like peanuts. They can't seem to get enough of them.
A shrimp platter for the diet minded....if there were any of those!
Two 7 layer dips. One for the party and one for the Blog Tech and his house guests.
Pumpkin tortellini with a browned butter sage sauce.
More of the poppers.
Hamburger sliders. I also made ham sliders which I forgot to take pics of. My daughter made a red devils food cake, buffalo chicken mac and cheese, fried chicken sliders and that's all I can remember though I know there was more. I cooked for 12 hours. She told me everyone had a blast and most of the food was eaten. I am taking a break from cooking today! ***Remember to enter the giveaway for the fortune telling cards by clicking on the button on my sidebar.
