Next up, Bruschetta! Oh, how I love the Bruschetta! I found this version of the recipe on the All Recipes website and it was delicious. There are other versions out there but this one seemed pretty close to what I was eating in Sicily and I ate a lot of it! 8 Roma or plum … Continue reading

These were not as much of a hit at the shower as the “Mini Ham Puffs” and the “Bacon Cheddar Pinwheels”. Courtney said they tasted funny, Bob said they tasted ok but not like shrimp and I can’t tell you what they tasted like because I don’t like shrimp so didn’t eat any! Courtney loves … Continue reading
