A lovely spread, no matter the occasion or time of year.
Notes from the LHTC Team
We, like the rest of the internet, are a little obsessed with snack boards. All the colors! The sweet and salty treats! Cheese! Arranged in such a way that every item has a place - it's like an ensemble cast in your favorite rom (Love Actually, anyone?). So gather your favorite snack all stars and create an ensemble board the whole family can enjoy. We'll dm Hugh Grant and see if he has plans.

1. First, assemble the tomato and mozzarella skewers by alternating cherry tomatoes,
mini mozzarella balls and fresh basil leaves. Set aside.
