Seriously...there is a reason that I picked Martha as my confirmation name. I just tend to go overboard when planning food for parties and get togethers.
And, so, with that warning, here is what we had:
- Baked Ham Sandwiches
- Deli Spiral Sandwiches (from Sam's Club)
- Meatballs (in the crockpot)
- BBQ Sandwiches
- Go Go Asiago Dip (Tastefully Simple)
- Bacon Bacon Dip (Tastefully Simple)
- Garlic and Herb cheese spread
- Banana Bread
- Crab Dip (super yummy -- my Mom brought that!)
- Deviled Eggs (My Mom made those too!)
- Pasta Salad
- Fresh Fruit (watermelon, cantaloupe, grapes, and strawberries)
- 1/2 sheet Cake (From Kroger)
- Lemon Pie (yummy and quick to make!)
- Cream Puffs (from Sam's Club)
- Chocolate Trifle (hey...when a gal owns a trifle bowl, she has to use it)
- Punch
Not only was it all so tasty, but now we have dinner for Monday night too! (And lunch too, as well as lunch for some of the people in Eric's office too!)

It doesn't sound like too much food to me! DH hasn't figured out why we need multiple entrees and dips and sides when we have a buffet, lol.
I think it sounds wonderful. I am hoping you will help me with a decision for my daughters upcoming day. The time of the First Communion is at five thirty in the afternoon and we have to arrive at four-thirty. They said we might not be through at church until around 8. Givin that info I thought we would have people over before Mass around three in the afternoon and serve cake punch and light finger foods. Is this appropriate or can you make a suggestion? I am a new Catholic and want to do this right. Please e-mail me at mtownsend7@comcast.net if you would like to share your thoughts...I could use a few. Thanks, Melissa
