2:00 shower question

sugar212

I am throwing a small shower for my sister, about 15 people max. It will be at 2:00 in the afternoon. Would cupcakes and lemonade/coffee be enough food or should I have a few snacks as well? If so, suggestions please! I don't have a huge budget either.

I would put out some light snacks as well-cheese and crackers, and veggies. That way if someone is on a diet or doesn't like the cupcakes for some reason (can't imagine why, but it happens), they'll still have something to eat.

Agreed. You don't have to put out a whole spread or an entire lunch but some munchies might be nice.

I like the cheese, crackers and veggie tray idea! Thanks ladies! I have no idea why I didn't think of that, I was over thinking this I guess.

You could also do 3 hot and cold dips and bread as well. Bread fills people up and the veggies are a nice well rounded balance.

that being said, if they are on a "diet", most likely they arent eating cheese and crackers either. if anything, have maybe a fruit or veggie tray at least. you dont need to buy much or you can buy a pre-made one.

I have celiac disease and I always appreciate when a fruit tray is put out so I can enjoy some snack too.

Agree with both of these.
