Being in New York has made me realize that pretty much everyone in the city has a holiday party two to three nights a week, wow! People are certainly entertaining this year, and I love that so much! Between the Christmas plays that are happening, the holiday markets, and all of the lights, New York is incredibly festive. I have not made it over to see the tree or the store-front windows on 5th Avenue yet. I need to find some time to squeeze that into my trip! With so many parties, and families gathering soon to celebrate, I know that many of us are probably in need of appetizers to serve to guests as they arrive. If you ask me my number one tip for entertaining, it’s to make your guests feel welcome the minute they walk in the door. Have the fire going, the drinks ready, and a warm bite for them to nibble on. There’s nothing more inviting than a delicious drink and appetizer situation! Below are some of my personal favorites…that also tend to be the most popular every single year! Excited to see which ones you choose to serve to your family and friends!
Hope you all enjoy!
