SC - We need help

[k&t Radford]

Greetings-

I need some help here-

Okay, we want to serve as period of food as possible at our feast this
summer.  We are trying to work on desserts & appetizers

What we want to know, is:

Are black olives period?  Are dill pickles period?

For desserts we were thinking of fresh fruits (summer varieties) which is
not a problem.  But we also considered fixings for Strawberry shortcake
type of dessert.  Is shortcake period?

Thanks for your help, knowledgable cooks  =>
