ellen 11/06/12	You are doing well, only the cheese needs help. Pecan Pinecone Cheese Balls 6 large Cheese balls shaped into large pine cones- need at least 12 pounds per 100, and I would probably go a little over. You could make 2 different "flavors"- a cheddar and a blue? 10 Boxes of Crackers for Cheese balls- 6 pounds per 100 You will have some tarts left over. Consider providing unsweetened ice tea for the no-sugar drinkers; about 6 gallons plus artificial sweetener.
