Guest guest Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 Congrat's to your niece! I'm sure you can do it Anita ~ and hey, you're controlling the menu! Hugs,Babette Victory belongs to the most persevering. Niece's Wedding My niece is getting married 4-17. She said she wants finger food at the reception and asked me if I would make it. Actually my sister asked and my sister said she would help. I feel honored. No I am not a caterer, but on Holidays I do most of the cooking except the big things and we primarily have finger foods because everyone has several other places to go. Wish me luck on being able to make the food without much sampling or sampling much at the reception. Anita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 Thanks Babette. It is true I am kind of controlling the menu. My sister and I collaborated. Hopefully I will be too busy to eat much and I don't usually each much at these kind of events anyway. Anita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 Thanks Donna. I just found out a few days ago my other sister is flying in from Alaska for the wedding and her son will be flying in from the Coast Guard Academy in Coneticut to be in it. He will be bringing his girfriend. His sister will be coming from the Cleveland Ohio area if she can get a ride. She is only 17. I said I would go get her and also suggested my other sister(the one whose daughter is getting married) because her dad will probably let her if my sister goes to get her. Hope he will. It will be great to see them again. Anita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 I've always found that when I'm cooking big meals .. or planning meals in advance I don't really do much sampling. I think it's because there are so many smells that I "think" I'm full! lol Hugs,Babette Victory belongs to the most persevering. Re: Niece's Wedding Thanks Babette.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Babette I never thought of that. I may have to try planning more meals in advance.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2004 Report Share Posted April 8, 2004 Hi Anita, Yes, if you have the time it really helps to plan, cook, and freeze meals ahead of time. In the long run you save time and money. Hugs,Babette Victory belongs to the most persevering.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2004 Report Share Posted April 8, 2004 Babette I actually do have some in the freeser I made ahead. I think I have about 4 left. Considering I started with 14 or 15 I guess I have been eating them.
