What dish can I take to a Christmas party?
user
There are many, many options!  I could recommend any of the following:

-   Potatoes Au Gratin with Parmesan-Asiago Crust
-   Nawab of Pata (a bread) and Asparagus with Miso Hollandaise Sauce
-   Brie-Apple Spread with Cranberries and Oat Biscuits
-   Sautéed Pasta with Italian Sausage and Black-Eyed Peas
-   (my personal favorite) Jumbo Smoked Almonds

The smoked almonds sound like something different.

Good call!  People are usually pleasantly surprised by that.

Are they easy to find?
user
Oh, they are definitely easy to find.  There are large factories across the United States that make them and provide them at food cooperatives and specialty markets.

If you ask for smoked almonds, people may just be confused.  I’ve seen smoked almonds on restaurant menus before, but they’re likely to be really expensive.  I’ve only seen them at a few restaurants, and the only one that I’m sure is still around is a restaurant called the Pacific Way Cafe.  You can go to their website, and I think you should be able to order them online.
