FEAST
Make this New Years' Eve a special gathering! Serve a variety of cocktails along with
creative & quick hors d'oeuvres like
bruschetta,
baked brie and caviar. Arrange small tables with appetizers like European
cheeses and fresh baked French bread, sliced apples and pears, vegetables
and dip, so that your guests have easy access to them. If you're hosting a smaller group,
consider a dinner party with an out-of-the-ordinary menu. Whatever you serve, let the good
times and the champagne flow!
