It is looking like for Christmas, we are going to my parents the 23-27th. Then go directly to my husband's Aunts house. The 27th-30th. We'll get home probably supper time on the 30th and have brunch at church at 9:30 on the 31st.
Bringing stuff to my parents is no problem, but what can I bring to Aunt T's house (my mom has some freezer space i could borrow). And what could I make ahead of time and free to bring to our church brunch on the 31st?
I need ideas!

Can you grocery shop when you get to your Aunt's house?
Take a bag of Oreos to the church function. Everyone loves oreos.

I'd bring a fruit/veggie/cheese/whatever tray from the grocery store on my way to wherever I'm going.
Sometimes I cook, sometimes I buy prepared. Depends on what's going on with my life at the time. Those times are times to buy prepared foods.

I don't remember if there is a grocery store in Aunt T's town. There is a Wal-Mart 30+ min away, but we won't be driving through it to get to her house.

Cookies should keep.

I brought cooked shrimp and a bottle of cocktail sauce to a Thanksgiving dinner. Huge hit, no leftovers. It was from Costco, cleaned with only the tail on so all I had to do was boil it and put it in the fridge.

For the brunch, you can buy little rolls that have sausage or hot dogs in them. If I do hot dogs, I do Nathan's. For the sausage, it is Sister Schubert's, but I doubt if it is a brand up North.
Anyway, both of these go fast. They are freezer products and available at Walmart so you could pick them up as you pass through.
