[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do not think about this.

But if a neighbor stopped by right now I would have the following for a mid-afternoon snack:

- some wines
- chilled sparkling water, soda, iced tea
- coffees and teas
- lots of different crackers and chips 
- cucumbers, carrots, hummus
- some cheese (pepper jack, provolone)[b]
- cream cheese and pepper jelly, which honestly, is so good[/b]
- almonds
- wasabi peas
- I could make chocolate chip cookies (I have some pre made and break and bake dough)
- could cut up a pineapple or slice some apples

Usually I have more fruit, frozen apps, and baked goods or chocolates but we're going to Costco today so we've let the stock slip below normal variety. [/quote]

OMG -- if I put out a plate of cream cheese with pepper jelly, I would eat it all. Guaranteed. [/quote]

+1 This is soooo good. Can't keep it on hand year-round because I'd eat too much of it. But it's a nice treat for holidays.

A friend invited me in to her place when we were out walking dogs together recently - I didn't pop in. She put a small plate before me with some almonds, high quality chocolate and Trader Joe's organic figs. Also offered hot tea. It reminded me that I should have some good snacks around as well, though no one ever really comes over unexpectedly. [/quote]
