Damn! I wish I had known about this. I'd have been there with bells on.
:-) What a great variety to choose from.

I'm grazing on cold boiled shrimp with very hot cocktail sauce, several
different cheeses, chopped chicken livers, and crackers. Some sweet things
to follow.

host that he is, we get our choice of toppings.

Funny thing is, my son owns or is invested in a bunch of different business.
One is a pizza place, but he ordered these from another place closer to
home.

Thanks it was a bit of a struggle this year 'cause we moved away from my
favorite Italian deli.

We started this many years ago when all the grandparents and parents came to
spend Christmas eve night so they could celebrate Christmas morning with the
grandkids.
