[quote=Anonymous]I view soup and salad as part of a meal. So I’d have started by putting out apps in the family room and had my husband greet people as they arrive and escort them into the family room and offer to get them a drink (if I could set up drinks in the family room I’d do that, too, but my family room doesn’t have a good spot for drinks). I’d be in the kitchen finishing food prep, and popping in and out of the family room to greet people and grab a snack myself. Usually some people come in the kitchen me and offer to help, which I tend to decline bc I’ve got my prep routine but they’ll stay and chat and wander in and out. If I planned to serve dinner buffet style, I’d have put the salad on the buffet line. I wouldn’t serve soup in a buffet style meal. Hth! [/quote]
