Party Time -- It's a Girl Finger Foods

When there are extra special people in your life, you want to share extra special celebrations with them. My dear friend Katie can be credited with introducing me to the Husband, so you can bet I wanted to throw her a heck of a party when I learned she was expecting a baby girl.

We reunited in our hometown to celebrate this new life and my mother generously offered her home as a location. There's something personal about an at-home party that you just can't get at a restaurant or club. Welcoming people to your table lets them know you really want them there. I really wanted all of them there, but there wasn't a table for 25 (it's not Downton Abbey after all...jeez). Given this constraint, I developed a menu of delectable finger foods with feminine flair.
