This was a REAL easy appetizer...

Take bread sticks, the thicker ones that are about 5 inches long.  Take a half slice of bacon and wrap it around the break stick spiraling around till it covers from end to end.  I left a little space on each end.  Bake on a baking sheet at 350 for 15 minutes or until bacon is done. While they are hot roll them in grated Parmesan cheese.  They can be served warm or room temperature.

I served these with mini tomato sandwiches...
Slice Roma tomatoes.  Lay them on a paper towel and salt and pepper and let sit for a few minutes so the water will be absorbed by the paper towels.  Meanwhile cut circles the size of the tomato slices out of white bread.  You'll need a special cookie cutter for this. I have set that ranges from small to very large so I can so any size.  If you  just have a small one you will want to select the tomato size accordingly.  Spread mayonnaise on each side of the bread circle and add a tomato slice.  You can also add a few bacon crumbles if you like.  I buy the REAL bacon pieces, not bacon bits. 

I also served toasted pecans....
Melt 1/4 cup butter. Add one tablespoon of Worcestershire. Add 1 teaspoon of  Paula Deen's house seasoning.  (I have posted this recipe already).  Add 4 cups of pecans and toss until covered in the butter mixture.  Spread on a shallow pan and bake at 300 for 15 minutes.  Stir at least once during the cooking time.  Cool and serve.

To top it off, I served Peach Bellinis.  Can you feel a Georgia theme here?  A peach bellini is half peach nectar and half Presecco (wine).
