[quote=Anonymous]Attending a bridal shower for a close friend next weekend. I am a bridesmaid, but the MOH and her mom have done 99% of the work here (on purpose, we 'maids aren't trying to slack).  We are helping out with appetizer-finger food type things.  Here's what we have so far: meatballs, fruit salad, chicken pita wraps, crab dip, brie and mini hot dogs.  I am making cheese straws, and want to add one more thing.  Any thoughts?
-While I do have kitchen skills, I WOH FT and have a toddler.  Easy/fast = better.  Bonus points for something I can prep this weekend, freeze, and just bake off at the last minute.
-Long story short, I will be driving very, very slowly so that DD can nap on the way to the babysitter's.  So something that can be stashed in a cooler, stored room temp, etc for about 4 hours would be best.  Crockpot IS an option but I hesitate because SO MUCH of the food is SO HEAVY for July shower (but, was not asked my opinions, so am not going to stomp all over MOH efforts).
-No dietary restrictions.  Bride prefers less-spicy things, and for family reasons Middle Eastern inspired stuff will NOT be acceptable (let's just say brides and grooms families are not exactly melding together on this one).
-I am allergic to shrimp, please don't make me prepare shrimp!
-due to heaviness of other food I would really prefer to make something that doesn't involve a bread vehicle (cracker, toast, etc).  No fondue.

The only thing I can come up with is caprese salad, maybe on sticks.  Inspire me![/quote]
