November is often synonymous with food and house guests…family and friends paying a call for the festive feast! Even prior to the big day it seems that everyone has food in mind…maybe it’s the change of season, large fuzzy sweaters that give permission to put on a pound or two, or maybe it’s just the fact that good food sparks great conversation and celebration! Nevertheless, if you find yourself with a visiting crowd…make it easy for those calling your house their temporary home to pull up a chair, enjoy wonderful company, and have plenty of munchies and nibbles to sustain ’til the big turkey finale! This is the easy part…no cooking necessary to keep those nibblers satisfied…healthy or sinful, it’s easy to find wonderful purchased treats to keep on hand while you’re entertaining! Fill up some containers and leave out a snack bar for all to enjoy whenever the mood strikes them to
crunch, munch & nibble!
use a buffet, table or counter to keep family favorites ready…
paper treat cups can be purchased almost anywhere. craft stores commonly stock them-often they’re in multiple sections so ask a clerk where you might find all styles!
stack ’em up–and they wait to be filled…
even a simple banner looks festive…use a large font on your computer, print, and cut them out!
now you’re ready to set out the goodies…
some favorite candies and happy gumballs in holiday color…
it’s always nice to use labels…this can help guests avoid allergic foods or less favorable choices!
a few healthier snacks too…
a little orange gourd adds color and makes another cute food label! simply stick a tag in coiled wire or use a corsage pin!
