Anya's baptism is this weekend. It's at 1, and I believe she's the only one being baptised. I'd guess we'd be done around 1:30. We'll have people over to the house immediately after, probably 1:45.

We don't have much seating so although some people will be sitting at a table, others may need to sit on living room furniture or chairs not at a table.

Would this tentative menu be a) enough and b) easy to eat in that situation? (all except 3 children 3 and under are adults)

Various breads
Various lunch meats (like 3)
Various cheeses (like 3)
Condiments (ketchup, mustard, mayo)
Olives / pickles
Macaroni Salad
Maybe some chips and other snacks
A selection of appetizers (whatever I get at Costco)
Cake

Pop, iced tea, juice, coffee

I am thinking maybe some fresh fruit as well?

:nod: That sounds great. That is more or less what we have served at Emma's last 2 birthday parties which were both around the same time. :)

Sounds good. I'd maybe add lettuce & tomatoes for the sandwiches.

Thanks all! Pam, good call on lettuce / tomatoes. As you can tell we don't entertain often.
