Great spread MM, and thank you for sharing this with us. I’ve said it before and i’ll say it again: you are remarkably generous with your ideas and insights and the myriad of brilliant yummy things your blessed brain churns out! And woe unto whoever applies to be your son-in-law, his will be a steep, steep uphill climb :)

MM, hands down!!! I wouldn’t even think about these food that you served. I could only imagine how busy your household was during the prep. Galing!

You are what I’d call a “Great Dad”… I cannot imagine my husband doing the same thing for any of of our 2 daughters; but then again, he can easily starve himself since he cannot cook…
Whoa! 200+ people to feed, huh? Are you sure you didn’t bless and make them multiply? That’s a lot of hard work and cooking and energy spent. But the result is more than compensating knowing the Kid is very proud of you and the guests could still taste the food in their mouths … burp,

one thing’s for sure mm, i’ll see to it that my kids are going nowhere near your site’s archives when they’re older! hehehe!

when i think of how lucky The Kid is, the more i frown thinking of my own kids. i mean, what kind of a dad do my little princesses have? Ã¼Ã¼Ã¼ certainly no food superhero like the marketman here. hell, let ME be the dad who dials up the pizza guy!!! I can order from 4 different pizza places SIMULTANEOUSLY, and I decide on the toppings W/O VEGGIES!!! I’ll even see to it that the pizza delivery guy is late so we get some freebies!!! hahahaha

kidding aside, mm, you’re a tough act to follow. certainly, The Kid will be hard to impress when sho grows up…

So, MM, my graduation is in two years. I was wondering… hehehe. Yeah, I definitely agree with everyone else. This is far from the store-bought chips, dips, and cookies everyone brings. Congratulations on pulling this off!

Grabe, what a buffet! 25 food choices! Your kid and her schoolmates are lucky, that’s quite a labor of love! :) When preparing a buffet menu once, I chose 2 pastas, 2 meat, 2 fish dishes, but then my mother-in-law told me to limit the choices to 1 food type each, because the guests will surely want to try everything. She advised, the more choices there are, the faster the food will run out. I should show her this post of yours — 25 items! Amazing! :D
