What should I serve?

So, um, yea - it is three days until the girls' party and I haven't thought of what food to serve.

My mom is having it catered by a local restaurant. They typically do finger sandwiches and sides. What kinds should I get? They can pretty much make whatever I want. I know I will get a fruit salad (yummy, yummy) for the kids.

Right now we plan on doing sandwiches, fruit with fruit dip available, two dips with cracker, tortilla chips, etc. brookies, and cake.  I am still deciding if I am going to have anything else.

I had Emerson's catered as well.  Finger sandwiches, fruit salad, pasta salad, and maybe a few dips will be good.

Not sure if you can order this, but here are the DD and kid-friendly things I made for DD's birthday party:

- Spanish tortilla (onions, potatoes, egg & parsley)

- Sweet potato spoonbread with goat cheese

- Cornbread

- Roasted chick peas

- Banana cupcakes

I assume you mean deli-like sandwiches? I'd do some kind of turkey (turkey and brie if they can do that - YUM!), tuna, some kind of vegetarian (like hummus and roasted veggies), and something hearty, like a roast beef or italian kind of sandwich. For sides, how about some kind of chips and dip (guac, spinach artichoke), maybe a pasta salad or potato salad, and a real salad (like a caesar or mixed veggie salad).
