We've done this to great sucess here in Nottinghill, because frankly,( with
some exceptions) kids aren't very adventurous as a rule. Since the object is,
in my poor opinion, a good time being had by all, and given most kids don't
give a fig about period foods, tis best to supply what they'd eat. The kids
are happy.. the parents are happy... everybody has fun.

We've tried this a couple of times. In truth, it was much more trouble than it
was worth. Your milage may vary. For a REALLY spiff event, maybe.
