The Menu Challenge: Cooking for Playdates + Childhood Zucchini Pancakes

The Challenge: Miss Pain is having a playdate party with three girlfriends. Moms are in the picture too. None of which I have ever met before outside the classroom. Food preferences - unknown. I politely email a couple of days before asking about dietary restrictions, and get the usual "do not worry about that".
