Ever since I inherited a panini press from my parents
I have been wanting to throw a Panini Party!
I decided to do a panini bar and Italian soda bar,
hence the "Paninis and Pop" party theme.

The "Pop" lineup:
Raspberry, Peach and Cherry/Pomegranate Syrups for mixing (recipe soon!)
Club Soda and Half &Half
Oranges, lemons and limes for garnish
Side dishes:
All different flavors of Kettle chips, our favorites!
Mini apples
And the main event-The Panini Bar:
What panini would be complete without bacon?
Grilled Chicken
Turkey and Ham
(notice I couldn't fit those words on the chalkboard clip!)
Sourdough, Multi grain, and Jalapeno Cheddar breads
(Jalapeno Cheddar was by far the group favorite!)
Spinach
(and cheese, since I forgot to take a picture of just the cheeses!)
