Go to your local grocery store or M&M Meats and pick up a variety. I like having the phyllo wrapped hors d'oeuvres as well as meatballs, cheeses. You can get a wheel of Brie that gets heated up and serve it with breads or crackers as well. Make sure you have a variety of things with meat and with veggies if you have any non-meat eaters attending.

In terms of dessert, maybe some fruit or small pastries. Are you having a birthday cake?

an array of fruit. some cocktail sausage. With those toothpicks. And a birthday cake. I make a Fish Dip that's good. Smoked salmon, Sour cream, Mayonnaise. Salt spices. This makes a wonderful dip for crackers. Maybe a cheese ball. all covered with nuts.

Alton Brown on Good Eats (Food TV) did a show on cheese. In it he gave tips for serving cheese at a party. You can probably find the episode by exploring www.foodtv.com and get the cheese arraingements. He said to limit the offerings (I think to four). Check him out!
