All for the Love of a Snack

One of my most favorite parts of this part of the year is.... Lots of company!  I like to have fun ingredients on hand to whip up a little platter of snacks when we have company, or go on a road trip, or go sledding, or, you know, even when I’m all by myself.   

Recently, a fun and amazing little shop opened not too far from our house.  It is called Maven’s Market.  www.mavensmarket.com ​ They have cheese, meats, gelato, and chocolates galore.  They even have this cheese that when they cut it, it looks just like a white carnation!  I would eat at Maven’s Market every day, except that I have a budget and my husband needs to eat, too.  So, I pick up a few staples and a little treat every couple of weeks and buys simpler more usual stuff at the grocery store. 

I love watching Maven’s Market on Facebook and try to make pretty snack boards, too.  I will never compare to their amazingness, but I like the simplicity of a couple that I made recently.  What do you think? ​
