All parties must start somewhere; this one started out in Minnesota and finished up in Madison!

The carefully sterilized servingware sits ready for food.

The servingware when it is fully utilized. This is Wisconsin so you'd darn well better have some cheese there (and neither American nor Velveeta counts!)

Notice the clever use of hollow Spiderman heads and baby hippo bodies to hold food and thus draw the attention of both the comic fans and the African fans to this table. The mirror creates the illusion of double the food, keeping both hungry and narcissistic guests at the party nearly twice as long.

The crowds may come and the crowds may go ...

... but nobody leaves without enjoying a good snack and a beverage.
