[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm dreading this. DC is already talking bday, though it is months away. We've not really had a kids party before. DC has 20+ classmates and it won't be a drop off party. I can't have it at home, I can't feed 50 people a meal. I can have the party at 2pm, right? And just serve snacks & cake without being rude?[/quote] 11-12 is lunch time. 5-6 is dinner time. Snacks and cake for a 2 pm party is fine, IMO. We do simple things. No catering. Crackers and cheese, assorted fruit or fruit salad, hummus and pretzels, etc. If its borderline close to lunch time (ie: a party from 9-11 or 1-3) I may throw in some lunchmeat rollups and pasta salad (and maybe wings, those are easy). But I tend to avoid throwing parties around mealtimes - its not only more expensive but also more hectic and time consuming.[/quote]
