This is rather an unusual menu for a 1 year birthday party, and I am not clear on the invitations. Is this 25 guests for the afternoon and a separate group of moms and kids for the evening? Please be specific; how many adults and children from 3-6 and how many from 7-830. Two cakes?
1.Steamed Mug bean with olive oil and oregano salad 1/2 cup per adult, 1 tablespoon per year of age for kids up to 5 Also, just a warning, a 3 hour party is quite a lot for a one year old, and 5-6 hours of party is just asking for meltdowns, tantrums and other disasters. If you must have 2 parties, Please consider doing them on 2 days. |
