YUM!

I’ll add my weird stuff—basically I am stuck in an auberge in the 1970’s:
- Bavarois (an old French dessert of gelatin (!), whipped cream and custard, “inspired by Bavaria”)
- Coquille St Jacques, I mean it’s seafood with a cheese cream sauce served in a clamshell, why is everyone sneering and/or gagging
- Dry sherry in the tiny glass
- Grand marnier or a cognac after dinner

Also:
Eel. I love it and you’ll never tell me anything different

Ritz crackers with peanut butter and bacon as acceptable cocktail fare

ALL OF THE STREET FOOD

Avocado toast

Snickerdoodle cake cookies from Safeway

Intriguing... I'll have to try this.

“Shrimp dip” made with those canned tiny shrimp; I will only eat it if my mom makes it

Classic cheese ball rolled in pecans made in bulk by old ladies from various service sororities like Tri Kappa, in the Midwest

Old-fashioned Smile cookies; the new kind at Giant dissapoint as the base is cakey, not a crisp cookie

Same. There is something about the saltiness of canned green beans. I made a delicious bean salad that has also types of canned beans. So good. So much sodium. But so good.

I also love that snack made with saltines, butter, and chocolate all melted together in the oven. My friend calls is "trashy toffee" but I know there is another name for it (in jest, she makes it for several different get togethers a year).

Lipton onion soup dip is a staple in our house. I make it for pretty much every gathering and it gets eaten right up. But it has to be served with Cape Cod chips or similar kettle chips.

Pigs in a blanket. I don't care how low class or trashy some may see these but people from kids to grandparents seem to love them and I don't think I've ever seen any left over. I'm not making them this year and I'm having second thoughts.

At Christmas my family always makes sausage balls with sausage, shredded cheese, and Bisquick. It's something I grew up with my mom making and we kept it up. They're delicious!
