It's football season and while I certainly get excited about pulling for my favorite Georgia Bulldogs, what gets me equally excited is creating fun and delicious appetizers to please the crowd!I always start with my favorite tablecloth and silver serveware! (You heard me right, silver!)
A true southern tailgate takes great pride in its food, but also, of course, how it is presented.
So dust off your linens, polish your silver, think about your presentation, then try some of these treats:
