I do coffee after church this weekend and was thinking lemon bars and something else, but nothing suggested was inspiring.
The last two times I made falafel and tzatziki sauce and people gobbled them up but I'm not up for that project this time. |

Why so rude? I would love to go to a get together like this after having dinner with my kids and eat the hell out of some lemon bars! I think some cheese and crackers would be nice too, and some fruit. If those don’t get eaten just put them back in the fridge. Like a goat cheese and a really sharp cheddar. |

| 8-11 sounds like dessert and wine vibe to me. So maybe a chocolate something and some simple shortbread |
