Keep a record of the parties and get togethers you've given, along with guest lists and menus and what aspects of the event were or weren't a success. It will make useful reading next time you plan to entertain. If you plan a menu of limited courses, everything can be set out buffet style. That way you 11 be able to enjoy the meal along with your guests, instead of running back and forth to serve.
So you won't forget anything that needs to be done for your party, do your planning on paper including a time schedule. If possible, do most of your party cooking in advance so you won't be stuck in the kitchen away from your guests. Cooping a party is a great way to entertain, especially if your schedule leaves little time for elaborate preparations. Arrange for everyone to bring something, and you provide the ambiance and the wine. Ifyou're planning on a house full of guests for a holiday party, don t forget to rent or borrow an extra coat rack so that you won't have to pile coats on a bed. Preparing for a party is much easier if all your entertainment equipment is stored together in one place.
For easy party serving and cleanup, use 1 big platter to hold the entire main course. Arrange all the food in an attractive manner and serve. A good substitute for a regular bar can be made by setting out an attractive tray of drinks, glasses, and accessories on a convenient table or counter. Ifyou're serving separate courses, keep a tray handy between courses and at the end of the meal for clearing the table. It will save you a lot of trips between table and kitchen. Remember to keep non alcoholic drinks juices, soda, etc on hand for guests who don't drink alcohol.
Invite your friends to a make a pizza party and see how creative you all can be. An easy and pleasurable way to entertain is to invite friends to your home for a relaxing Sunday brunch. Before a card party, you can clean plastic cards by placing them in a paper bag with a few tablespoons of flour. Shake the bag, then remove the cards and wipe them off with a damp cloth.
