Any tips or ideas for making an edible fruit arrangement for an office Christmas Party?

Q. I've decided to cut some of the fruit into shapes like stars, circles, etc. Some fruit may be dipped/drizzled with chocolate, nuts, etc. Are there any tips or tricks anyone may know of for keeping the fruit fresh while preparing the arrangement? I plan on cutting the fruit on a Sunday night, and preparing the arrangement the following evening. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Thanks so much, y'all! All of your answers are very helpful so far! =)

A. fun fun fun-

check out this site for arranging ideas

Definitely listen to the dude with the lemon juice comment- not neccesary for all types of fruit, but definitely for apples. If you use any banana, thats the stuff to chocolate cover- cuz otherwise the banana will start to look funky (lemon juice trick doesn't work very good w/ banana)

Stick to fruit that holds up (cantelope, apple, pineapple, strawberries, grapes)

Good luck


Any tips for driving to Texas from Minnesota with a 10 month old baby?
Q. My daughter (who will be 10 months old when we go) and I are going with my parents to Texas from MN. Any tips for making the long car ride easier for her? She usually does good in cars, I'm just worried she will get bored fast.

A. Little books that make noises, lots of snacks and juice, several toys next to her seat so she can grab as she pleases, and a portable dvd player with some good kids movies. Best of luck hun!!


What are some basic tips to give to kids about staying healthy?
Q. I'm trying to teach my 6 year old nephew how to stay healthy. I need tips from eating right, to being active and maintaining hygiene. Any health tips you expect a 6 yr old kid to understand.

A. You should tell them to eat lots of smaller meals and to eat slowly so that their bodies are more able to recognize when they are full. Also its important to drink lots of water and fruit juice rather than soda. Try and encourage him to stay away from junk food and eat fruit or something healthy when he wants a snack. Also teach him to be active, that playing sports and running around is good for you as well as fun. Also teach him the basics of hygiene like showering daily and brushing his teeth 3 times a day. Try and make it all fun for him though, as kids respond more to things that they find enjoyable.
