 north central Iowa, Hampton | I think 1/2 pound is more than you need if your guests will be visiting multiple parties in a day.
But, I generally side with the "have extra" crowd. I remember getting ready for kid #2's graduation and finding a strange ice cream bucket in the bottom of the deep freeze. It was left over barbeque beef from the 1st's celebration, 4 years earlier. It was still usable--no not for the guests. I made the family eat it. |
