Label What You're Offering with the Tonights Showcase Serving Board

— December 27, 2012 — Lifestyle
Letting guests know what's what when it comes to serving can be cumbersome, but the Tonights Showcase Serving Board will let them know exactly what each item you're serving is. The convenient built-in chalkboard makes it easy to label cheeses, meats or any other appetizers so that your friends and family will be able to quickly identify their favorites.

The Tonights Showcase Serving Board comes in particular handy with parties and potlucks, as when a guest arrives they can simply place it on the board and add the description to the roster below. This way, everyone will know exactly what they're about to enjoy. Additionally, the serving board is great for letting vegetarian guests know which items they can eat without having to taste test for meat.
