Bacon Wrapped Apricot Almond

Parties and bacon go together like,  well…..bacon goes with everything.   We love people like Caren that bring the new and different.   Put on a pretty plate with a nice pottery bowl for the sauce and wa-la,  an appetizer that will have people asking, “what is this, yum?”   These can be assembled the night before which is an added bonus!
