My friend, Diane,

came by yesterday to borrow some tasting dishes because she was hosting a book club tonight.  I knew she would do something wonderful, so I went up before her event to see what she had done.

They were amazing!  I went up without my phone, but I ran home to get it because I had to take pictures.

Here are veggies dipped in ranch sauce.

She made the little tomato hearts by cutting

the tomatoes in half and putting them together

with a toothpick.

This is cut pineapple, mandarin oranges 

and whipped cream.

 She is a quilter and had made

this little quilt.

 These were apple pieces cut with a melon baller 

and dipped in caramel.

(She sent some home and they were delicious)

 String cheese rolled around a pretzel

with chive wrapping around it.

 Syringes filled with colored syrup 

that were going to be filled with a peach drink.

Goblets dipped in colored karo syrup.

Top plate

 is small mint truffles with

Halloween decorations put on top

 Bottom plate

is small pretzels, with caramel in the middle,

dipped in orange chocolate with a pretzel stem. 

 Beautiful tablescape.

 She said she wouldn't do this one again

because it wouldn't stay together, but it

is a jello block with a blackberry head.

 

She always does the most unique things!

I had to take pictures so I could copy!
