Less than a month until my GRE?!

Tomorrow at work we are throwing my secretary a baby shower brunch. The whole thing is kind of an inchoate (not fully formed; disorganized) event on my end, because I am in charge of food and I have no idea how I'm going to get it all there or what I'm going to serve it on.

I am bringing
3 boxes of mini croissants
3 boxes of mini donuts
2 fruit trays
3 boxes of incarnadine (blood-red in color) strawberries
2 boxes of blackberries
1 box of raspberries
a triple layer cake filled with bavarian cream and strawberries and topped with whipped cream
a bread bowl filled with spinach artichoke parm dip, and crusty italian bread to go with it
chocolate ganache and strawberry jam for the croissants
a fruit and yogurt parfait topped with granola

grapefruit juice (which I will then mix with lime sparkling water and a little OJ)
OJ
Lime sparkling water (whatever is left over can be for drinking)
Iced tea (which I burned my finger in while boiling the tea, and then I promptly yelled imprecations (curses) to the sky)

Other people are bringing breakfast meat and quiche and all that good stuff.

Why don't I speak English?

I hope the hermetic (tightly sealed) top of the pitcher of iced tea doesn't come loose in my car.
