Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Whether you are going to a party and need something to bring, or if all of a sudden you have a knock at your door, this Crabmeat appetizer is a great quick snack. When Suzanne and I married, this was our favorite standby snack when entertaining or to take to a party.
Another of my favorite and most requested appetizer to prepare is my Crab Stuffed Mushroom recipe. When my grandmother turned "100", this was what everyone wanted me to bring.
