[quote=Anonymous]Impromptu cocktails with the neighbors need not be stressful. Don’t invite too many people-1 or 2 couples. Less people = less stress. I always like to prepare (or buy) a few room temp or cold dips/appetizers (from a few nice cheeses to hummus). They can be ready to go when people arrive. This is why the charcuterie boards are so popular. Appetizers that require the oven can be heating while everyone gets their drinks. The following day, evaluate your menu. We’re some items too much work or too messy? I am willing to fuss with recipes, but not when people are there watching me or if it creates too much cleanup.[/quote]
