I am currently planning my family’s annual Christmas party.  This is always a lot of fun for us and usually involves a lot of cooking and preparing since about 50 or so people come to my house for dinner.  This year we have decided to go with a South of the Border theme with Mexican appetizers and a nacho bar.  I’m having a lot of fun planning deserts and looking for festive decorations.  Always at the top of my list to feed my family is Sam’s Club and this year I am really happy to know that they will have a big selection of Artisan Fresh Appetizers to get what I need.

Sam’s Club is proud to announce a great change to many of their Member’s Mark® products. Now you can find the quality bakery and deli products you’ve come to expect from Member’s Mark under a new name – Artisan Fresh™. What hasn’t changed is the freshness you and your family already know and look forward to. So be on the lookout for Artisan Fresh items at your local Sam’s Club® and enjoy great-tasting foods, skillfully prepared – just for their Members.

Sam’s Club’s new line of Artisan Fresh pre-prepared appetizers make it real easy for anyone to throw together a dinner party.  They have that great “from-scratch” taste without the “from-scratch” time that it takes to make them.

Now, everyone knows that I love making things from scratch but even I know that if 50 people are coming over, I need to take short-cuts so that I can actually enjoy my party and not be stuck in the kitchen.
