Simple Tips to Help you Produce an Amazing Sandwich Platter …

  This week we celebrated Christmas at work with a staff lunch in the office.  We had already attended the “official” work Christmas Party but the lunch is a more casual tradition with everyone in the office asked to bring a plate of food to share and celebrate.  We ended up with a fantastic variety of food and enjoyed a delicious lunch with great company.     One of my “go to” offerings when I’m asked to “bring a plate” is a sandwich platter.  Rarely does anyone ever double up with the same thing and I always find it’s enjoyed and appreciated.  … read more

  Well, it’s that time of the year again! The time when little “ghosts”, “goblins”, “witches” and other scary little monsters take to the streets shrieking and squealing “TRICK OR TREAT”!
