I am known for the impromptu little get togethers at my house... it may be two friends, it could be six...
BUT - whom ever it is, or for what.... it's a celebration to me!
So, last week was Hanukkah and on the short notice, two of my best friends came over and here's what I whipped up real quick!
An easy cheese board
- I like a variety of cheeses with different flavors and textures: sharp cheddar, brie, smokey gouda, and Jarlesburg (the Jarlesburg was the favorite of the evening)
- I also like to mix in fruit, so 1 package of blackberries, two apples cut, and a bunch of grapes.
-The entire plate cost $27 at the market, which for fast entertaining I think is great!
(For 3 girls, this was pretty much dinner, and some cupcakes but that's not the point!)
I then laid out a vintage table cloth, brought out the Vera linen napkins and wooden block napkin rings and a simple little party was made.
Ooooh, perfect... I am planning on doing a cheese platter for a party this weekend & never would have thought to had the fresh blackberries I just bought. Thank you for the idea!
