It didn't seem like there were 58 people there. You can't blame yourself for left over food from no-shows. <br /><br />Second, I've found when planning kids parties, it helps if I count adults and kids separately for food. Most likely, a kid isn't going to eat the same amount of food as an adult. An adult might have 2-3 pieces of pizza but most kids are going to only have 1. But everyone needs a cupcake so I don't know how else you could have done that. <br /><br />Either way it was a great party and everyone had a fun time!!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02005368731399040840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7259509710359265053.post-1591727524757394222011-04-14T18:32:27.200-07:002011-04-14T18:32:27.200-07:00Wow that is a crazy amount of food left over!!

One time, I remember she threw a party for my grandmother and there were about 75+ people there. She ordered boxes upon boxes of Swiss Colony petit-fours (we're talking hundreds of them!...and I never knew how much it cost until I grew up and wanted to order some for something I was having). Luckily, we had an extra fridge in the basement. But...yea...she was always worried about making sure everyone had PLENTY to eat and I'm the same way today. I get panicky when we have to go to a function at the in-laws (they are not this way...and I often...always...leave the place hungry because there wasn't enough food for everyone). They often don't tell me how many people will be there and I always want to make sure there's double or triple the amount of servings so everyone can enjoy thoroughly. I'd rather have more leftover foods than to have people leave and have to hit up a fast food place on the way home.Chubby McGeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01314736525363564330noreply@blogger.com
