I was introduced to this delicious cracker mix at my mom’s house. I remember putting some on my plate and then going right back for seconds. The crackers have a wonderful flavor and a kick of spice that make them hard to resist.

My mom loves to host gatherings. She’s had church meetings, book clubs, and craft groups at her house regularly in just the past year. There is always a variety of food for all to enjoy for each event, and these crackers usually make an appearance.

Her craft group typically spends a whole day together working on their own projects or a group project they’ve selected for the day. They work the morning away and then one of the ladies will prepare a delicious lunch for all to enjoy. Then, they get back to work for the afternoon. From what I’ve observed, the day is filled with creativity, fun and laughter.
