Goodness. Since we're heading into fall, how about something a little warm and toasty? Always a favorite are sausage bundles or hanky pankies, or pigs in blankets with a spicy mustard dip?

I LOVE the ducks in the punch! I wish I had thought of that!
A few things that went over well at mine-
tortilla pinwheels-tortillas (any kind), cream cheese-I flavored mine with dry dip mixes, like ranch dry powder, and what not, thin sliced deli meat-turkey, ham, etc. You can add veggies if you wish but don't need to, I liked avocados sliced thin though. And roll up. It's best to leave in the fridge over night, and then cut into pinwheels. The larger the tortillas the prettier (more rolls) they are though I did learn that.
I used the extra dry ranch powder I had and mixed it with another block of cream cheese, and put out crackers, people loved it!
Every one loved the sausages in the bbq sauce with the grape jelly in a crock pot.
Every one also loved the deviled eggs, had none left and I had a ton!
I also made cream cheese mints. I use baby silicone molds, the booties were really cute. Every one loved those too. I also mixed the peppermint flavoring with a bit of wilton's butter flavoring and it was really good. I made a few other flavors too, the keylime was well liked as well-I used lorain's flavoring for it.
Trying to think of anything else I have made........cheese, and grapes or any kind of little fruits, usually do well.
Pasta salad-some places sell some neat shapes that could go with baby themes. I know our health food store has all kinds of shapes.
