This week it is barbecued chicken breast with potato salad and corn on the cob, with a bottle of Fess Parker Frontier Red.

Great deal, delicious food, beautful setting... Read More

Now that I’ve grown up, I’ve moved on to a wider (and healthier) variety of social snackage, but the original thought remains the same: a party just isn’t a party without dips, spreads and other bite-size nibbles...
