I Think I'm Going Nuts!!

Now that the weather is getting colder and all the leaves blew off the trees yesterday (there went Fall), I'm really getting into the Holiday Spirit.
We're going to have some friends and neighbors (they're not necessarily the same) over for a little pre-holiday get together. I want to serve something small and "Autumnal" (I love that word), so I'm thinking Nuts, but Savory nuts, not sweet, uber rich Pecan (Pe-caan, Pea-can) pie.
There'll be enough of that on Thursday.

So here's a quick appetizer that is always a big hit at the "Schmidt House." (yes, I know how that sounds......)

Blue Cheese Ball

8 oz. cream cheese 1 Jar Kraft Old English Cheddar
2-4 oz. Blue Cheese (crumbled)
Pinch of cayenne
Mix all together, form into a ball or log, and roll into mixture of chopped pecans and dried parsley flakes
