A Snack Platter Dinner Is A Legitimate Thing!

Our neighbours came over for dinner last night.

We get together quite often, and many times our dinner is not a proper meal. Instead it is a dinner of snacks.

Our friends will bring some. I will rustle some up. Fresh harvest from the vege garden – maybe some little tomatoes, green beans or a nice crunchy capsicum (bell pepper), crackers and dips and cheeses and relish and nuts. Maybe some leftover salad or roast meat or vegetables. Whatever else we can find that is snacky.

Then we add wine, or bubbles, or tea. Throw in some good conversation and a few laughs. Music, of course.

Perhaps something sweet to finish. Fresh fruit or whatever biscuits, cake or chocolate is hiding in the pantry.

Maybe, after a while, some kind of game. Cards Against Humanity is a favourite.

Quite often I’ll make us all a Golden Milk latte or a mug of chai to round out the night.

It’s an easy thing to do, to throw together an assortment of snacks. It’s low key, and if you’re tired or unwell it makes having company a pleasure rather than a chore, which is as it should be!

The energies of 2019 suit relaxed get-togethers and shared company. Maybe you could try a snacks platter night some time soon, and ask all your guests to contribute.

Hugs and love, Nicole❤ xx
