Revising my thoughts after some discussions, and also as a result of feeling like crap this week.
Baked brie (en croute, puff pastry) will most likely make a comeback to our appetizer/day-grazing table as I have a wheel in the freezer I’d like to use up (and my aunt has puff pastry and hot pepper jelly in stock).
Stuffed mushrooms elicited some excitement, but they may be a last-minute addition based on how much energy I have.
Nixing the fish mousses/rillettes (as they did not elicit similar excitement).
I’m toying with the idea of curing salmon again as smoked salmon is a permanent fixture and home-cured is considered an upgrade (by others: I’m happy enough with store-bought, but glad to make it for them).
