Hi Everyone,
Thanks for the advice before! Here's the menu we've come up with. The party is open house style at 6:30 p.m. Everyone knows to expect apps, drinks, and desserts (but no formal dinner). Check the menu (and the item names, if you're a Twilight fan!) and let me know if you see anything major missing or if this seems like it will be more than enough.
Thanks! (P.S. - I'm C&Ping from Word, so sorry if it gets wonky...)

Looks awesome, and now I'm hungry. That's a lot of food!
But is are pizza roles different than pizza rolls?

Yes. By "pizza roles" I mean the actual pizza prop from Forks High School cafeteria. I bought it on Ebay.
I will never, ever, ever be able to have a grammatical error around Mamie.
Bwhaha. I was genuinely curious!
If it makes you feel better, the sign I had on display at the expo last weekend was missing a letter. Instead of "Providing" it was "Proiding." I wanted to crawl under the table and cry.

PS, here's the dress I just bought for the party:
It's actually much more silver in person (and fits me a little differently -- flares more at the hip, not as low up top). I think I'm going to rock it with a black cardigan and Chucks, a la Bella in New Moon (or, you know, any time Bella has to wear a dress is one of the movies...)

Love this idea! Are you going to make all this food yourself? It looks like quite a feat!
My mom and I are, yeah. To be honest, most of it is quick -- we're buying the premade stuff from Costco and just need to heat it up (bake, microwave, or boil). The desserts though, yeah, those are all homemade
Friday night! I'm super excited
