I only made one batch of the almond rainbow this year; one 13 x 9 x 2 inch pan that I should be able to cut into 50-60 bars. Sure was easier to do the smaller batch!<\/p>\n<p>I took tomorrow and Friday as vacation days; tomorrow will be party shopping and pack cookie boxes, Friday will be ship the boxes, go to a meeting on campus, then party food.<\/p>\n<p>My plan is to keep the party food a little simpler this year, too. Cheese &amp; salami boards, lots of spreads from the freezer that I made with summer &amp; fall produce, like pepperonata and leek confit.<\/p>\n<p>More pics soon, promise. The overleaf is glitter poinsettias, courtesy Trader Joe&#8217;s. Like glitter poinsettias &#8211; really?! They&#8217;re already poisonous &#8211; great idea to make them scatter glitter throughout your house, too.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I must be done because I&#8217;m out of containers to put cookies in.
