Appetizers


Both of these recipes are very popular at get-togethers, and they're almost impossible to screw up. Believe me, if it could be done, I would have!  But be warned - if you're going to be the most attractive person in the room, don't use these. Then you'll be the hottest and the best cook, everyone will hate you, and you'll have a lousy time!
