8th Grade Promotion Luncheon

Just days ago my baby girl had her 8th grade promotion ceremony and is now moving on to high school in just a few months! This calls for a celebration!

For her luncheon, we decided on a soup bar. I served salmon chowder and French onion soup with crusty bread sticks, croissants, spinach artichoke spread, shrimp and krab.

About a month ago, I found these cute seafood forks at Tuesday Morning. It’s not entirely clear in the photo, but they have a crab at the top. I thought they were perfect for serving up the krab.

Here is my trusty tiered server that I use for my breakfast bar. Have I mentioned how much I love this thing? I wanted to keep the dessert simple, so I served a couple types of cookies with fresh fruit. Off to the side was a dish of Nutella for dipping strawberries…but a lot of people used it to jazz up their croissants too. Who are we kidding, Nutella goes on anything, right?
