FASHIONABLE FLAVORS

Cater to your A-listers with fancy finger foods and refreshments served on -- what else? -- silver platters. You might even enlist helpful (and hopefully good-humored) siblings to play waiter. Some suggestions for festival party fare:

•   Star-shaped sandwiches (cut peanut butter and jelly or ham and cheese into celestial shapes with 2- and 4-inch cookie cutters)
•   Pigs in blankets
•   Mini pizzas
•   Mini quiches
•   Raspberry ginger ale
•   Shirley Temples (mix 1/2 cup ginger ale with 2 tablespoons grenadine and garnish with a Maraschino cherry)

 
For dessert, serve the star-studded crowd a glamorous Sunglasses Cake, easily fashioned from one 9-inch round cake.
