I’m guilty of sneaking a peek at award shows as they come and go. Following trends in music isn’t my thing. TV show nominations do catch my eye.
Who hasn’t heard, “May I have the envelope please…and the winner is….!”

Yes it’s time for cheering or jeering movies. Sunday Supper wants to help you with food that keeps your guests on the edge of their seats!
Award parties are all about glitz and glamour! Considering an awards show can be HOURS long, we like to dress up our plates with finger foods while we watch our favorite (or not so favorite) stars walk down the red carpet. So, here’s your chance to show us your award-winning fancy finger foods. Share your favorite finger food recipe we can eat during an awards show.
A fancy finger foods menu should consist of something for everyone. Four to five passing choices is ideal. Add a charcuterie board or stationary display and you’re set.

I like to start with something light. Butternut Squash Squares offer a sweet, light way to ease into a party.
