that's easy drink ideas get some 7-up, vodka, orange juice, pineapple and cranberry fill up a pitcher of ice and pour it in!.!.you dint taste the booze and its an easy on the stomach drink!.!. the food you could just get some pre cut cheese and crackers with some chips and dip nothing fancy at all!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You can never go wrong with a veggie and fruit tray most people like either one or the other I would also put out maybe different dips like spinach dip or salmon dip finger sandwiches whichever you choose maybe some chips anything can be tasteful with the right set up as far as drinks I would buy a array of sodas diet and regular as some people drink diet and some people drink regular and maybe bottled water for those that don't drink soda hopefully it helped these are all things you can make on your own the spinach dip is pretty easy and very tasteful I hate spinach but love the spinach dip with Hawaiian bread! good luck with your party!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Finger foods would be best, as others said!. Serve several appetizers!. The Crab Meat Appetizer below, is always a favorite!. Serve with crackers (like Town House, etc) The mini cheesecakes go together quickly, can be done ahead of time, too!. They are very impressive when served!. Cooks!.com has tons of appetizer recipes at their site!. I posted these to get you started, as I've served both very, very successfully!.

Almost forgot about the drink ideas you asked for!. I added a couple of punch recipes (yes - from cooks!.com)

1 cup of Lipton iced tea mix (lemon flavored)

In a punch bowl, mix the ice tea mix with the ginger ale very well!. Add a lot of ice and place the oranges and lemons on top!. People will like enjoy in their serving glasses!. It's a huge hit everywhere and just too easy not to make!.

I have a jello tupperware mold that I fill up at Christmas time with water and let it freeze about an hour and place cranberries and mint!. The next day just before the party I put the ring in a large glass or punch bowl and fill with cider or what ever you want!. It floats to the top!.

also Trader Joes has tons of fun things to make for parties!.
