" Take it easy, but take it."
- Woody Guthrie
"As I've said before, this time of year is hectic. We can all use an easy button, or six. I've got a great, tasty, guilt-free, easy answer for your parties, book club get-togethers, ladies lunches, sports watching parties, work treats, Saturday lunch with kids...or every other reason you have to eat a tasty bites. This seriously comes together so quickly you can wing it at the last minute and still look like the perfect hostess or party-goer. Here's what I made, but as I try to always offer you, the options are endless. I'll add a few ideas for variety. Take the fun party picks with the tassel-like ends and add half of a cut grape, a cube of cheese ( I used a creamy Havarti) and a red raspberry to each. Put on a pretty plate/platter in mass and drizzle with GO-On Tap raspberry balsamic. I have made this several ways, but like the look of the green grape, cream of the cheese and bright, beautiful pink of a raspberry. You can try apples with sharp cheddar with GO pecan balsamic. Make pear with cheddar or havarti, red 1/2 grapes with GO pecan or pomegranate balsamic. Medjool dates (halved) with havarti and GO Cran-Orange balsamic would be delicious as well. Use your imagination, use your time well and easily and with your favorite GO-On Tap balsamic, your mouth, food and sanity will thank you. Pour. Savor. Enjoy."
