yes she probably does. She'll want to catch up with all her friends and such. One of her friends is 5 minutes from the venue. They suggested instead of ordering moe's they could just cook up fajita meat and bring it. Well messy crap is off the menu. The even is 2 hours from the house but we're going up a day early so I'll have practicaly a day to do any prep I want to do, the question is do I want to. I just can't do prep here at the house.
But..I'm not sure I can do it all myself or have time to get it all done in one day. I was thinking something like :
1. mini eggo, with chick fila nuggets drizzeled in honey for a chicken and waffle bite - I could prep
2. crustini's and various dips - I suppose I could prep most of this, but I'd like some mind blowing toppings (especially crab dip) so I might order that out
3. caprese salad squewers - I could assemble that the day of I suppose
4. cucumber tea sandwiches - I know I'm not good at these, but I suppose I could try the day of
Maybe I'll throw in a fruit tray, a fancy meat tray and a veggie tray which I can buy I guess
5. maybe fried gnocchi or fried ravioli - I couldn't do this
6. little quiches - I couldn't do this
7. meatballs (maybe Swedish or quality ones, not the usual crap in jelly sauce) - I couldn't do or keep this I don't think
I think if I plan for everyone to have 2 of each of the 7 that's 14 bites x 45 people is 630. At a dollar a bite do you think 600 is a reasonable budget?

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
