Are there going to be children there ? Make them some cup cakes and decorate them with orange and yellow frosting,candy corm and little pumpkins.Or some chocolate chip cookies.Chances are that his Mom will have the traditional pies.You can call her and ask if she'd like you to bring something specific.
