Something sweet: Store-bought cookies (look for the mini-Oreos, the size of coins). Jello in cubes. Chocolate bridge mix. Apple slices, kept from turning brown by plunging them in lemon water as soon as they're cut.

Something salty: Potato chips. Pizza cut into two-inch bite-size pieces. Goldfish crackers. Pretzels. Peanuts.

Something to drink: 7-Up, Coke or Pepsi, some "diet" for those who prefer that. Coffee and tea, kept hot on a warmer. Make lots of ice for the soft drinks ahead of time.

Provide plenty of coasters, small plates, and paper napkins.

Make your own party mix. Mix Doritos (reg, nacho and ranch), tiny pretzels, crunchy cheetos, salted nuts, beer nuts, M&M's and Reeses pieces. Crunchy, salty,cheesy and sweet. Outstanding.

Your favorite homemade cookies. Always a hit ;-)
