Look at that spread!! That little lady on the bottom left is clam dip . . . guhhhhh. So good. We've got sliced salami. We've got glad corn. Mango avocado salsa. A professional-grade cheese board complete with sliced pears, a beet rosette, dates, and wasabi peas. As if that wasn't enough, we've got some olives and tapenade with bread.
