Holiday Party Ideas

For those who get a tree later in December, consider planning a tree trimming party. Serve savory nibbles like crostini with tapenade, baked brie with chutney, and smoked salmon with sour cream and a sweet treat such as mint chocolate brownies. Fill a big punch bowl with sparkling pomegranate punch and set out boxes of ornaments. Be sure to put the lights on your tree before guests arrive.
