Circling the Prey

Although the hungry hoards bypassed the appetizers last year, this time they pounced on the cheeses, hummus, deviled eggs, shrimp, veggies, chips and dips with a vengeance. My food assignment turned out to be appetizers, and you can see what I brought in the foreground: Crackers, Swiss cheese sliced, and a log of goat cheese. I knew my cheese would stand a better chance of disappearing if I cut it into slices, and my theory proved correct.

I know you see only four people at the moment, but trust me, the mob standing outside the camera lense jumped in shortly after. By the end of the picnic, they nearly destroyed all the goodies. But what next? Ah, the long buffet table!
