party food 1

Informal parties to celebrate small accomplishments make our daily life
incredibly rich.

Some of the items we served at this party included:

Easy sour cream vegetable dip with carrots:

• Mix one package Knorr Vegetable Soup mix with 16 ounces sour cream. Refrigerate overnight.
  

(By the way, Knorr brand is owned by Unilever, which has great recipes online!)

Pepperidge Farm Entertaining Quartet fancy crackers topped with:

• Havarti cheese,
  
• Swiss Lorraine cheese,
  
• dill pickles, and
  
• black olives.

(Pepperidge Farm was started by Margaret Rudkin during the Great Depression in response to her son's asthma and allergies. Pepperidge Farm brand is now owned by Campbell Soup.)

Pineapple slices with:

• a dab of sour cream and
  
• sprinkled with cinnamon.

For dessert, we served Happy Apples brand refrigerated caramel apples.

The food was great, of course! It was a party!

chicken gumbo from a can

The other night we had a curiosity manufactured by Campbell Soup Company: Chicken Gumbo Soup. It was spicy, but definitely thin and watery. A brothy soup delicately filling a bowl rather than a thick and hearty gumbo covering a heap of rice. However, it made a good appetizer for the light and delicate main course: Garden Salad.
