Serving pieces.

Practice makes perfect.  Once you have decided on the party food, focus on how to serve it.  Practice arranging serving pieces to determine if you have everything needed.  Stackable serving pieces save valuable space when needed and can be separated when the table looks bare.  We have found that placing a slip of paper identifying what goes in each serving piece eliminates the stress of food placement on party day.
