Come Party With Me: Half-Birthday Housewarming — Menu
On birthdays (and half birthdays), I like to make my favorite foods, thus for my half-birthday housewarming, I plan on serving a spread of delectable Italian bites. The party goes from 7:30-10 p.m., smack in the middle of dinner time, so I'll need to offer a substantial amount of food. I don't want to spend days in the kitchen or prepare anything that requires a plate and utensils; that's why I'll take some help from the grocery store and make four easy appetizers.

Vegetable Cocktails: A Pretty Spring Party Snack
At a recent wine tasting, I went off in search of the snack table in between sips. I was disappointed by the lack of cheese (how can any event serve crackers and no cheese?!) but totally inspired by a colorful spread of what I'll call "vegetable cocktails."
On the table were rows of stylish, V-shaped cocktail glasses.
