I think Margaret's right. BUT I think that your idea of having some
suggestions ready is good. Maybe you could ask them about fish OR fowl
OR beef OR pork. Also - the people who buy this will probably be kind
of adventurous eaters. You could do great classic comfort food
(potroast) or something that's familiar but with a twist (gamehens
glazed with currants served with wild rice pilaf withpecans. For
dessert you could knock yourself out if you are a great baker (I am
NOT0 or keep it simple and elegant with premium ice cream served in a
chocolate shell with a liqueur (Amaretto?)
Good luck! Sounds like fun.
