LQQK at this great idea for a party-cherry toms/black olives- don't they look 'CUTE';)

They look Great!!! I will do this. Thankyou for the pic.

They are cute. Found the recipe for making them:

Cherry tomatoes and black olives make really cute lady birds. Base is made up of sliced bagettes, cream cheese, smoked salmon and flat leafed parsley. Sprinkle ground black pepper on tomato and using a toothpick dot some cream cheese on the olives for the eyes.

Thank you Darlin'

What a yummy idea!!!! :)

Black olives sounds better than capers. Looks like fish/lox? under on potatoe. What for the white eyes? And where is the cheese? I think I could do this. Perfect family reunion platter. Thank you!

Very cute!
I like to do nick nack snacks and will definately try this.
Thanks for pic and also how to do them.

Very pretty; is it parsley or celery leaves, underneath?
Cute ladybugs.

What a creative idea. I need to make that for our quilting ladies at the next luncheon. They will love it. JUST SEW CUTE.....

Too cute to eat!!

I bet they used poppy seeds for the black dots and sesame seeds for the white dots or eyes.

I saw this on one of the EMB websites today.
