Now let’s discuss lunches.

It severely makes me so pleased to feed folks and with the youngsters round, no snack goes uneaten.

The largest snack hits have been: grapes, candy potato chips, French onion dip, pimento cheese, and any candy possibility. I stocked up at Dealer Joe’s on a few of their seasonal pumpkin cookies and pumpkin batons. I’m such a sucker for seasonal treats.
