Drink/finger food ideas.

We still have about 3 weeks before we move in.... but I'm excited and have nothing better to do since I'm off tonight  

We're having a housewarming party the weekend after we move in. Drinks and food. I don't want to make a whole meal.. and I plan on supplying SOME of the alcohol. What are some drinks I can make in large quantity that won't cost an arm and a leg? I was thinking jello shots, or those Skittles shot things (at least I think those were alcoholic... might've been Sprite on second thought   )

And what are some good finger foods? I will have a crock pot if that matters. No veggie or fruit trays... we're young and aside from myself and 1-2 others, nobody eats the smurf  

I'm young and I would eat an entire vege tray to myself!

But mini burgers are really yum. A simple dough works you just make teaspoon size balls and cook them. Then add little patties. Yummy.

LOL! As would I. Well, maybe a fruit tray. Love fruit. But those smurfers are expensive and I don't want it to go to waste :/ So I'm just staying away from that, lol.

The burgers are a good idea  

You can soak a bunch of gummy bears in vodka overnight! It's not technically a "drink" but it definitely gets you going..

This looks like it would make a pretty decent amount. And it looks really good.

That'd be a good idea, though. How would I lay them out for people, though?

I usually put them in a bowl...but you could use some kind of candy bowl or something!

Or you know what? You could put like a handful of them in little shot glasses or something.

oo our housewarming is soon too!

Some ideas that I have tossed around (besides the normal clambake stuff we're doing) are
strawberries filled with cheesecake filling
homemade potato chips and carrot chips with
avocado ranch dip
buffalo chicken dip
cake batter balls
cake pops
crescent roll wrapped asparagus
asian meatballs
southwest eggrolls
You could do a huge fishbowl for a drink!

Or martini glasses cos you fancy when you get sugary smurfed up

I hope they have clean hands  

I just found something called Pink Panty Dropper   It sounds gross, but people are saying it's good. It has vodka, beer, and pink lemonade. Hmm.

I like that better. So everyone's fingers aren't all over everything
