YOU CAN MANAGE THE FOOD! Think about shortcuts. wings can be bought frozen& done pop them in a slowpot -done(just reheating) Fried Chichen fromWALMART or SUPER K-meat dish done! BAGGED SALADS, the list goes on--your your friends to help. SAM'S, BJ's, COSTCO, GORDON FOOD SERVICE (GFS), - these are your friends, when doing a big party. Frozen fruit salad (GFS) just have to set down to defrost!
