Smoky roasted sweet potatoes, creamy and salty feta cheese, and tart and subtly sweet dried cranberries stacked on looped bamboo skewers.

A while ago, we served glasses of sangria and seasonal hors d’oeuvres at one of our favorite boutiques, Flock. 
One of the appetizers we served was both a layering of colors and flavors. Smoky roasted sweet potatoes, creamy and salty feta cheese, and tart and subtly sweet dried cranberries stacked on looped bamboo skewers. The shoppers grabbed the bites while sipping their sangria through red and green striped straws.
