You could make up a pan of chicken, ziti and brocolli. Or a lasagna or baked ziti, and a crockpot full of meatballs. You could get cold cuts (pricier), and finger rolls or good bread, and let people make their own sandwiches (rather than making those little sandwiches).

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BILLYTEA!!
chicken, ziti and brocolli.
Oooh!
And maybe a pesto tortellini.
Happy b-day, billytea! And congrats, too!!
I talked to my niece last night. Her b-day was last Thursday. She said, "Nee Nee! Happy bid-day! Happy bid-day!" I about fell over from the cuteness overload. Damn I love that girl.
Aimee, I have a good, easy recipe for penne pasta with eggplant, that can be made the day before, if you want it.
I'd love it, Sparky. I love eggplant. The shower-ee, NSM, but I'll make it for us.

Insent, Aimee.
If you post a menu like that, you risk having all of us show up as gate crashers.
Hee! I'd probably have more fun!
Aimee, take a stroll through TJs. In addition to their spanikopita, they have mini quiches that are pretty good, and carmelized onion and feta in phyllo that were good, and other stuff.
Thanks Lee!
