I was asked to host a teenage girls "learn and shmooze" series (for about 10 girls) . I won't be leading it at all, its simply in my house. Nothing extra is expected of me but I do want to make it a nice experience for these girls.

What can I do, or what very simple food can I put out that will make the evenings that much nicer they do not want a whole buffet or meal. the most I can do is cookies type of food. but is just putting out a plate of cookies enough? what's cool for teenage girls?

Bowls of popcorn, corn chips, and Twizzlers so they feel they can dig in.

Grapes cut into small clusters and drinks and cups strategically placed around the table. Napkins readily available for spills.

Worst is wanting for a drink and waiting to make eye contact with someone near water to avoid interrupting speaker.

Cookies are delicious!!!!!! They'll love it. They're just probably used to more than cookies. As in, better variety of cheaper things than one nicer thing.

Also... You can buy an assortment of cookies. Plus as someone in my highschool once said, (im paraphrasing) cookies are better than cake bc even if you have a few cookies, it still feels like you're eating fewer calories than a piece of cake

Especially if you break them in half first!
