Oysters Rockefeller, caviar, a decent pate with the usual preserves, Spanish ham and the prerequisite raw milk cheeses .......I'm excited.:bigsmile:

I have a recipe for an amazing fresh cranberry jalapeno cream cheese dip. I know it sounds strange, but it's a great mix of those ingredients plus cumin and cilantro and sugar and green onion....yum. People are always asking me to bring it. If it sounds like it is up your alley, send me a message and I'll get you the full recipe.

That sounds good. I love jalapeños.

Any sort of hummus (my favourite, garlic, roasted red pepper and feta hummus) and a spicy carrot dip (made from roasted carrots).
