Christmas Themed Appetizers


The holidays are long over and life is back to the usual routine. I love the holiday season and find it very magical. It indeed is the most wonderful time of the year and the season to be jolly. On Christmas day, we usually meet up with close friends. This year I was hosting the Christmas meetup and decided to assemble some Christmas themed party appetizers which I had seen on Pinterest.

They were fun to put together and looked and tasted awesome. I wanted to post this during the holidays but got busy and never got a chance to finalise the post. The pictures are self explanatory but am still posting the method of assembling these appetizers. Wishing everyone a very happy and a healthy 2015.
