Ask what you might contribute. Generally hosts like wine or desserts. However,my standby appetizers: shrimp with cocktail sauce on a platter, cheese/fruit(grapes or fig spread--go to the Cheese Store for recs) with crackers, salmon roe caviar on sour cream...sprinkled with a few chives and crackers
Or lovely flowers in an inexpensive jar (so the hostess doesn't have to stop and cut flowers) Wine is always nice, as is fruit.
Most of all, have a wonderful time!
