My parenting class is starting on Friday, and I'm signed up to provide the snack and beverage for that day. Any suggestions? (I'm guessing it has to be cold, since it'll be sitting out for a good while...) I will serve the beverage in the Q-W Pitcher, but have NO idea what to serve- food or bev!
 
The Taffy Apple Tartlets are fast, cheap, and easy.Just remember: you are what you eat. ;)
 
Cran Raspberry Fizz and Tuxedo Brownie Bites!
