Menu Check- bday
I know it's early, but I like to start buying early. So, bday party for a 2 year old. Start time around noon. 20ish adults and 10ish kids (all but mine over 10).
Apps:
A few of these bruschetta
antipasti platter
veg tray
Dinner:
Meatballs
Baked ziti
tossed salad
garlic bread
maybe chicken parm? I'm trying to think of an easy way to do smaller portions. I do an unbreaded chicken, covered in cheese and sauce that is really good.
Dessert:
Costco cake
Ice cream
It's a cat theme so these chocolate cookies

Re: Menu Check- bday
Love the cookies - super cute
I think everything looks really good. I don't understand the meatballs (you mean the crockpot ones? by themselves? as a main?), but I'll chalk that up to regional differences and roll with it
I think you can safely skip the chicken parm for a couple reasons: 1) the antipasti platter, ziti, and meatballs are all filling, popular options, 2) I can't think of a way to easily serve it to a crowd in a home setting, and 3) it may require a knife and fork, decreasing party friendliness.
Everything looks great.

Thinking of doing cosmetic updates to a dated home? These were our costs.
tms- I tend not to try to tie the theme in too much with food. It taxes my brain and I'd rather just have good food. I might be able to do a simple smoked salmon bruschetta though. Goldfish are super easy and kid friendly.
tar- The meatballs I was just thinking of putting in a crockpot with pasta sauce. I was going to leave the ziti without a meat or put in sliced sausage. I haven't quite worked that out. Mainly it's that my 2 yo loves meatballs and my dad likes his pasta extra saucey. This would take care of both those issues. I'll skip the chicken because I can't think of an easy way either.
