Cocktail Party on a Budget








Having people over can be expensive, so I devised this Happy Hour Party to entertain without making a dent in your wallet.  I tried it out on a few friends last week, food was under $20 and probably could have served 10.

First, invite people over via my favorite iPhone app, Post by Gadabout.

Menu:
Garden Herb Rolled Goat Cheese
White Bean Dip
Pigs in a Blanket (request via the man)
Warm Carmalized Onion Dip
Fried Garbanzo Beans
Assorted Crackers

Everyone brings a bottle of wine to share

Here are ideas for decorations that are all under $20.  I need to be better about taking photos - so you could see my spread.
Ikea Vase - Used as hurricane and at $2 you can put these all over

Ikea Napkins

Mexican Garland - Pearl River

  2. Gadabout is by a local Atlantan and she has a ton of chic graphic designs. For .99 it is a steal!
