Tips
Allow plenty of time - you may want to arrive a little before 10:00 am. It always takes longer than you think to put all the goodies out on plates, make the coffee, pour the juice, etc.
Keep it simple - although you may want to make a favorite recipe you don't have to provide a four course meal. The congregation is grateful for your efforts.
Amount of food - usually you want nine or ten plates (or bowls) of food. From experience we've found that a mix of sweet and savory items make
a popular spread. Some examples are:
- Sweet - cookies, brownies, coffee cake, muffins, candy, fruit
- Savory - cheese and crackers, dips with crackers, bread or other, small sandwiches, frozen hor d'ouervres
Don't forget the kids - a plate of cookies on the side-board with the juice is always welcome.
Plan on making/buying items that can be cut up into edible sizes and eaten with our fingers - lots
of napkins are provided, but no plates or forks.
