I am attending a baby shower in a couple of weeks and it is a potluck. Any suggestions on what I should bring?
 
baby shower ideasI planned my neices baby shower and I have included my menu ideas for you, on page 2 there is a simple recipe called diaper sandwiches they were a HIT!!! I had to double the batch 4 times over everyone was devouring them as fast as they came out of the oven, not to mention they were really cute and you can fill them each a little differently if you want. You can use chicken, canned ham, tuna, etc.

also the little pacifiers made out of lifesavers were really cute too!
