And I made those devils on horseback more than once. How time flies!

I am trying to get to the bottom of that tinned asparagus wrapped in crust-less bread then secured with a toothpick and placed in the oven recipe. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of it. As soon as I find it, I’ll post the recipe.

And I think you spread the bread for the tinned asparagus with corn relish ?? We used to have it after school under the grill (not rolled) with some melted cheese. I haven’t had that in at least 20 years ! But you are making me feel like a late night snack….

I savoured it a lot when I was little when my parents had dinner parties! I still am loving it though! When you have a great appetizer, it will stand the test of time! 🙂

But hahaha I’d always coming out an hour later and start running around asking all the adults if they liked my dress or hair hahhaa kinda embarrassed to talk about it now LOL

Definitely going to use these as an appetiser next time I have a party at home ~

Being an only child, my folks always invited me to the party for a while, then talked about me after I left, but I was down the hall and could still hear some of it! Love this classic appetizer, and I think it’s interesting how we are beginning to revive some of this style of entertaining, though I’ll admit to being a bit lazy about the piping hot appetizers!

Love seeing how many commenters have their own versions of the memory you so deftly described. And your comment regarding the need for toothpicks is, or was, so true! Thanks for helping to start my Monday with a smile!

The devils and the sitting on the stairs eavesdropping and watching my parents and their friends get tipsy on the couintrea I have no idea how to spell that. Oh and don’t forget the pickled onions, stabbed with a toothpick 🙂 xx

No leftovers the next day for us unfortunately.
