A few Nct mums and babies are coming to my house for a walk and then lunch. I've said I will provide snacky bits and plan on making cheese straws and sausage rolls from scratch. Also providing crisps and dips. Any ideas on any other food I should provide to make make a good impression?
Thanks

I wouldn't be sharing food with anyone but my live in family at the moment. And you do know that babies count in the rule of six?

What @ArticulateYourLife said.

Pandemics and dips dont mix.

Yes fair enough. It's only two mums and babies so within the rule. That's why I though snacks so people can go up and get food from the kitchen and not all sit down to a meal.

You’ll get flamed for this OP as it sounds like there will be more than six of you. I don’t have anything against inside socialising with caution and limited numbers, but even I wouldn’t be comfortable with sharing food like crisps and dips with peoples’ hands in everything. I would personally stick to the walk and if you gather inside for lunch then each person brings their own.

Yes I like the idea of being their own I will suggest this.

Interesting that you assume I'm lying. Why would I do that as I have nothing to loose or gain at all!? I actually wrote the message quickly as on way to supermarket to pick bits up and should have written a couple of people but thinking as it's including babies it could be a few! My mistake.
