So you’ve heard all about meal planning and how it can change your life, but you’re not really sure where to start. You’ve done some research, but there are so many types of meal planning and so much information that you’re suffering information overload.
Setting the moods, controlling the environment, and keeping things flowing can go a long way towards having a great party. Here are my never-fail tips for making my guests feel welcome.
Clean Your HouseClutter piled up on your kitchen counter, a filthy toilet and an old dirty hand towel scream that you didn’t care enough to prepare for your guests.
Be ReadyIf your invitation said the party would start at 6:00 pm, be ready by 5:00 pm. Set up as much as you can ahead of time. Have your hair and makeup done, your outfit on, and all necessities already set up.
Maintain A Comfortable TemperatureKeep the thermostat warm enough to just knock the chill off of the room. Once people start arriving, turn the thermostat down.A room that’s too cold will have guests clinging to their jackets and thinking about how warm it could be in their car.
Provide Ample SeatingUnless you’re putting on a concert, chances are your guests will want to sit down at some point. Don’t make them feel like they need to get up to let somebody else sit down.
