Okay, so I'm going to start this way ahead of time. My daughter will have her 3rd birthday in a few months and I was hoping to do it raw. Her little friends love fruits and veggies, so I'm not worried about them...it's my friends that I'm unsure about. Her birthday cake should be very easy, and I'll make plenty of ice cream (raw deserts are my specialty), but what about the rest? Should it just be a bunch of finger foods, like Nori Rolls, or should it be something elaborate like a raw lasagna? My first response is that we shouldn't have food at all...but that's what all celebrations tend to have (it's the reason we gather, right?). Anywho...I'd love to hear what dishes YOU would serve and how you would do it. I still have a ton of luau decorations from her birthday last year, so I might just do it again. So, perhaps something with a Hawaiaan theme would be good too. I can't wait to hear your responses!

For a mix of familiar and fancy, finger foods like Nori Rolls could be a hit. Raw lasagna sounds delish, too, if you're up for it! Adding a Hawaiian twist with luau decorations sounds perfect for a summer vibe. As for your friends,  maybe throw in some crowd-pleasers like fruit skewers or veggie platters alongside the raw treats. Since you're into raw desserts, why not whip up some tropical fruit sorbets or coconut bliss balls? For a chill beachy vibe, check out pool parties in Miami for inspiration. Besides, Hyde Beach menu might give you some fresh ideas.
