Plan, Plan, Plan.
Think formal vs. informal... Will it be
Smoked Salmon Pinwheels
or
Bugs in a Blanket? Match the menu to the occasion.
Plan on 4 to 5 appetizers per guest for each hour of your party.
Shop smart: Jot down the menu; write down the ingredients and prepared foods, including
amounts; double-check your pantry to see what you have on hand; check coupons;
group the list by store and even by aisle for a speedy trip.
