Wigs and Champagne Party!

Final Menu Plan

Here is the list of hors d’oeuvres currently planned – all of which have been chosen for their elegance (this is a champagne party after all!) and their easy preparation requirements.

Hot Dip? (Buy at TJ?)
Gorgonzola, Carmelized Onion, Fig Jam Crostini (buy Fig Jam??)

Cold:
Deviled Eggs (try to make ahead)
Chopped Smoked Salmon mixed with Cream Cheese on Cucumber rounds
Radish Canapes with Black Olive Butter
Taramasalata Canapes????? See Martha's Book
