What does one take or > make to take, to a party like this? The desserts will be store bought. Snack stuff, definitely. Nothing that gets in the way of the games and/or drinking (if past bachelorette parties are any indication). Stuff that's easy to eat with one hand, like devilled eggs, veggies or chips with dip, or the ubiquitous chicken wings. I posted a recipe for teriyaki wings the other day that I really like. And here's a couple of tried and true snack recipes: Cream Cheese Pinwheels 1 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened 1 T. grated onion 1 tsp. prepared horseradish Dash Worcestershire sauce 1 4 oz. package ham lunch meat (8 slices) Dill and/or sweet pickles, cut lengthwise into quarters Blend first four ingredients until smooth. Spread evenly over ham slices. Lay pickle spears across one end of ham, roll from that end to form a log shape. Chill for at least one hour (can be left overnight), slice into pinwheels just before serving. *** Greek Meatballs 1# ground lamb or beef (or ˝ # each) 1 egg, beaten 1/3 C. dry bread crumbs 1/3 C. soy sauce Ľ tsp. powdered ginger Ľ tsp. garlic salt Ľ tsp. cumin ˝ C. chopped walnuts Preheat oven to 275°-300° F.; mix all ingredients thoroughly. Shape into 1 inch balls, place in single layer in 9 X 13 inch baking dish. Bake uncovered for 35-45 minutes. Makes 32-34. *** Jalapenő Dip 16 oz. mayonnaise 16 oz. sour cream Sharp cheddar cheese, grated Salsa (fresh or jarred) Chopped jalapenő peppers (roasted or canned) Mix all ingredients, chill at least one hour. Serve with tortilla type chips. > Michael <- thinking sacks of White Castles Oh, ick!

I read about those in a romance novel the other day. ;-) Seriously tho', consider devilled quail eggs! I've been buying water packed canned quail eggs lately from the Thai store in Austin and they are delicious!!! The whites are a little firm, but the yolks are creamy.
