Last week I shared part one of my coffee table diaries and today I am sharing an entertaining option. Whenever I have girlfriends stop by to watch one of our favorite tv shows or for a pre-dinner drink, I always try to have a few snacks on hand.
A cheese plate is my go-to appetizer because it is pretty, it pairs well with wine and there is something for everyone. If you include cheese, fruit, nuts and a meat you should cover all (or most) your guest needs (and dietary restrictions).
I love to add color to my cheese plate with a variety of grapes, apples and cheeses. A meat option and crackers are also great additions that provide a little more substance. 
A girls night wouldn’t be complete without something sweet! I prefer sticking to finger foods that are easy to share and distribute – you can’t go wrong with an assortment of cupcakes (from Billy’s Bakery)!
