Yes. This.

I like all the things everyone posted, and, am dieting, so I'm always excited to see raw veggies and fresh fruit

Buffalo chicken dip

I love anything on a little crostini like these: https://www.marthastewart.com/911324/crostini-and-brushetta-recipes

Something refreshing with cucumber slices topped with yummy stuff.

[Anonymous]

Cheese trays, pigs in blanket, Doritos, fruit tray, hummas.

[Anonymous]

Fancy cheeses with good crackers, vegetables avail on the side.

Some kind of chocolate dessert (a variety of very small portions is great because I can try several!)

Does wine count?

[Anonymous]

Pigs in a blanket!

Those are all so creamy and fatty. I'd love to have olives and/or fresh vegetables too. Something to add acid, or fiber, or freshness to all the rich foods.

Something hot - pigs in blanket or spinach artichoke dip

Something cold - shrimp cocktail, deviled eggs, or cheese platter

Something crispy - spring rolls, bacon wrapped scallops, goat cheese phyllo cups

[Anonymous]

Anything with shrimp
A warm dip
Lots of freshly cut fruit and veg (and not the precut kind from the store. Those are gross)

Well, at this point in my life I'm excited to see anything that I'm confident is gluten free. But before I ate gluten:

Lemon bars
spinach and artichoke tip with yummy bread
in-season fruit

[Anonymous]

deviled eggs
baked brie
pitcher of martinis

A variety of interesting savory popcorn

I'm the opposite. I'm happy to eat costco appetizers - I want it to be as easy and stress free to have me over as possible.
I want to spend time with you, I don't care if you hand made some fancy crap.

Just go sit in the driveway in a plastic chair and drink your PBR out of the can.

I’m happy to eat anything but the OP asked what are we excited about!

I like to see things that don’t require a lot of handling by the cook. So melons balled or other fruit cut into shapes and put on skewers, I don’t really like. Same with deviled eggs. I just don’t prefer that uncooked foods be handled so much. Same with cheese - put the slabs out and let guests cut their own.

You don’t want the host to slice the cheese, instead you prefer to have everyone at the party slicing the cheese?
