Whoa Nelly!

March 25, 2016 by candicebeckwith Leave a Comment

On Monday Grant and I are hosting a farewell open house for some friends who are moving to the East Coast. We had this conversation:

Me: So, I think I’m just going to make a few simple things for the party like brownies and cookies, you know, out of a box,  instead of asking people to bring potluck snacks to share. It’ll be really low key and easy. What do you think?
Grant: I think that sounds like a GREAT idea!

So, after a bit of time on Pinterest, here is the quick and easy menu I came up with for the party:

Samoa sheet cake
Chocolate chip cookies
Key lime bars
Spinach bites
Mexican pinwheels
Samosa bites (This idea is my sister, Al’s fault. Since she mentioned that she made some last weekend, I haven’t been able to get them out of my head!)
Carrot cake muffins
Grant’s homemade popcorn
Rice pudding with some toppings

You know, simple, easy, low key. Time to reign myself in a little…
