What would you recommend to serve at a baby shower?

Q. I'm throwing a baby shower for my best friend in late March, I'm throwing it in a park and there will be no more than 30 people there. What do you think?

A. A picnic is a great idea!! Depending on the crowd you are pleasing you could go different directions, if it's going to be a fluffy, really girly kind of baby shower then some great little sandwiches de-crusted with cream cheese and cucumber, or prosciutto with arugula and brie, would be great. Also you could have a little dessert bar at the end where you bring picnic friendly desserts. Her cake, for example, could maybe be a cupcake cake so you don't have to worry about sharp knives and everything, it's also easy to assemble while you are at the park and you can make it as small or as large as you want, it's even easy to take home because it can be divided up if someone want to take some home with them. For the rest of the dessert bar you can get one of those little chocolate dessert fountains, they have some I think that are battery powered now and they are only like 30 bucks but totally worth it. Then you can set out marshmallows and dried fruits, strawberries, cookies and any other snacks to dip in. As for side dishes, a nice cole slaw with a vinaigrette instead of the traditional mayo is always nice and keeps better for a picnic. Also a nice pesto pasta salad is always a hit. I make mine with a bunch of basil olive oil parmesan cheese and toasted pine nuts and garlic whip it all together in a blender and pour the olive oil in until you reach your desired consistency then boil some pasta noodles anything you have, chop some dry salami, not the kind that's already pre-sliced, add some chunks of cheddar cheese and some salt and pepper toss to coat and viola, be sure to keep it cold though (one of my moms inventions). The veggie and the fruit tray is a great idea and I always make this dip that is absolutely to die for with my fruit platters, it's 1 package regular Philadelphia cream cheese (the little block package) and one jar of Jet puffed Marshmallow whip, be sure to have the cream cheese at room temperature when you mix it but pop it in the fridge after you make it to get it cold for the picnic (Helpful Hint: If you know the sex of the baby you can dye the dip as well as the frosting for the cake accordingly, if not just leave it white) . As for drinks since the Mommy to be can't drink I would recommend making a spritzer sort of thing with some of her favorite juices and some ginger age or sprite, if you want to go a little lighter on sugar you can use sparkling water instead of soda, also you can use frozen fruit to keep everyones drinks cold instead of ice cubes, they're edible healthy and stay cold almost as long ( this is what I do and find it to be much better). Good Luck, hope this helped!!! Happy Feasting!!

How am I able to go to Africa and volunteer to build a school there in the future?

Q. Well Im only 13 going on 14. And one of my life goals is to go Africa and help build a school with other volunteers. I know I cant do it now since Im a minor. But maybe during high school or college. Would I have to pay for joining the organizations? Would I have to pay for a plane flight and meet everyone a certain place? How long would I be there and where would we live in for that certain amount of time? Do I need to speak the languages there?

A. I do volunteer work with Habitat for Humanity and The Fuller Center for Housing (that's how I got my nickname!), so I can share how it's worked for me with them.
You don't pay to join these two organizations.
You do pay for your own airfare and meet the rest of the group in a certain place. You also pay a fee which covers your expenses while on the ground (housing, food, transportation) as well as a donation to the local organization to help with their work.
The trips generally last one to three weeks; most volunteers can't give more time than that at once.
As for housing, most of the trips I've been on have put us in shared rooms in a non- luxury hotel; for my most recent trip, the organization rented the upper half of a duplex for the summer to house the teams of volunteers that were coming in. However, I've read of trips where the teams stayed in gymnasiums or tents..... On some trips, provisions have been made for prepared meals to be provided, while on others, the team cooks for itself.
Speaking the language is helpful but generally not required. I've found that I get more out of the experience if I'm able to speak with the people I'm helping. On my trips, there has always been at least one person who spoke both languages - but if that person is busy doing something else, you don't have an interpreter at that moment!

Habitat for Humanity has very limited opportunities for people under 18, due to liability concerns. Minors can't operate power tools. There are supervision requirements; a group volunteering must have one adult per specified number of minors. We've had high school groups come in and do landscaping, install closet shelves, things like that. Habitat has an active college program; in fact, two of the colleges in our area have their own campus chapters and one of them has done amazing things in the fundraising area as well as actual construction labor.

I applaud your goal and hope you have the opportunity to achieve it.

How much would a trip to Japan cost me if I can plan it with in about a year?

Q. I would like to stay for 2 weeks with my boyfriend. How much do we need to start saving to make it a great trip for about 2 weeks?

A. Air fare: You need $1000-1500 if you are departing from US

Hotel: Usually, you need $100 per night if you want to stay at a hotel.
If you want to save money, you need to stay at a hostel which will cost $30-50 per night.
If you want to stay at a luxury hotel, you need $200-300 or more.

Food, transportation and others: You need $50-100 or so per day. If you want to enjoy shopping, you need more.

So you need $100 for hotel and $75 for others per day. If you want to stay in Japan for 2 weeks, the total cost will be $2450 and airfare for each.

My fiance and I are considering eloping to Yosemite. Any recommendations on what company we should work with?

Q. We want a very small ceremony, either just us or some close family and friends. We have begun researching websites for Yosemite elopements, but can't tell if they are legitimate or have good reviews. If you have any advice or experience to share, we would greatly appreciate it!

A. My husband and I were married in Yosemite Valley at the little church in the valley. It is a small old church with the steeple on the right of the main road going through Yosemite meadows. I don't know if you could fit more than 20 people there but it's very quaint and price is very reasonable. We contacted the church pastor and had our flowers done in Mariposa the day before the wedding. We found a local photographer and he actually ended up being our best man LOL. We stayed at a local Bed and Breakfast but it's no longer there now. However The Ahawhnee Hotel is an awesome place to stay and you can have a wedding and reception there if you have the money to do so. You'll need to make reservations at http://www.yosemitepark.com/Accommodations_TheAhwahnee.aspx I'd also strongly suggest you take a look at a Bed and Breakfast over on the back side of Yosemite in a small town called Oakhurst. It's called Chateau du Sureau and is part of the Relais & Chateaux luxury hotel and gourmet restaurant chain... the place is amazing, they do a lot of weddings and house the wedding party...yes it's pricy but hey you only have one big wedding day right;-) Here's their website http://www.chateaudusureau.com My hubby and I have stayed there several times and it's like a fairy tale. Each room is different, the staff line up and meet you out front like you actually live there, you'll feel like a princess. They have a private villa as well as the main house, 5 star all the way. The breakfast is amazing. They have the neatest chess board out back that is life size, lots of fun. Erna the owner also owns the restaurant next door and the food is amazing. So those are the 2 places I highly recommend, though there are other places in Mariposa, Oakhurst that are very close to Yosemite. Here is a good website with several you can compare, sometimes they do weddings too. http://www.yosemitebnbs.com/comparebnbs/index.html http://www.houndstoothinn.com Congrats, have a wonderful marriage. We're going on 26 years and lovin every minute together.

How long does it take for Horror Affairs to give one a passport?

Q. B is doing a shoot in Botswana pretty soon. He'd like me to join him and also just get a feel for Botswana and see if we could live there, make more bucks before heading else where, if we can afford to. He's been thinking of moving from South Africa for ages and since we're Tswana speaking and born, it wouldnt be such a mission blending in.

So how long does it take for a passport? Does anyone know how much one will also be paying?

Thanks...:)

A. About 2 months.
Do it in the Jhb CBD.
The passport cues are shorter there trust me.
Its because black people do not travell outside the country.
Their ID cue is very long but the passport is very very short.
If you go to Randburg and any lany place the cue is long because whites travel abroad often.

You will need your ID, and 2 photo's.

What is the best way to expierence a trip to europe?

Q. What would better, a vacation package, or just renting a car and going with the flow?

A. OMG OMG I wanted to do the same for the USA!

and u want to come to Europe! Great!
Now listen!

You need to rent a car, buy a book or two about the areas you want to visit and go with the crazy flow and leave it all to randomnes, of course when you go to Barcelona you will have to see the best things there, and you can check your travell books for that!
REmeber Europe is just as big as the US and you need to take in consideration also that to go from one city to the otehr say barcelona to Madrid or from Madrid to Paris you ll need quite a lot of driving! A day or maybe two each. But its worth it. Only in this way you will be able to experience Europe, which also happens in the little cities rather then just in the major ones!

On the other hand when you go with a group of people you make new friends and share the experience.

So the decision is your.

If you are already with friends, and do not appreciate meeting even more new ones, then go by car!

Whatever you do make sure you plan in advance, even for your car trips because its often that people do waste time with loosing themselfes in a new city, which is fun in its own way but that you can do when you have time, after you have seen the essentials of that city!

so good luck!

My dream of going to the US this summer did not happen, but I am glad that you are going to make ti! so go for it! and have it for the rest of your life, its an amaqsing experience! it will be with you forever! if you got friends to share it with, even more so!
