The holiday season and the resulting party circuit is about to descend in full force. As much as I love sitting down to a meal with good friends and good wine, I don’t always have the time to pull that together between holiday shopping, decorating, wrapping, cookie baking and a little thing called work. General holiday stress takes a lot out of me and there’s not a lot of time or energy left to pull together fancy eats for a party. So why not put together a few tasty appetizers that are impressive and most importantly can be done ahead? A few tasty nibbles and a nice, cold glass of bubbly makes for quite a party. “Small plates” are popular for a reason.
