David @ Spiced
Cocktail parties full of small bites are one of my favorite things about the holidays! I'll start with a bowl of those warm olives and then move right into the champagne grapes. Those grapes are so cool! I've only found them on rare occasions around here, but when I do I grab a bag or two. Love this collection of appetizers! Merry Christmas, my friend!
