[quote=Anonymous]Food wise, I always keep on hand, in the freezer, a pound cake, some frozen fruit (blueberries or raspberries), and ice cream. I also always keep a can of Hershey's chocolate sauce on hand, and I always have sprinkles. So dessert is easy for both kids and adults. 
For meals, in the summer my go-to is burgers, so always have buns in the freezer, homemade pickles on hand (also keep fish burgers and veggie burgers in the freezer for vegetarians). I will add in what I can depending on how last minute it is -- potato salad or coleslaw if I can make it, or just go buy it if I don't have time.
In the winter my go-to is tacos. I always have premade taco meat in the freezer, and cheese frozen too. A quick run to the store for cherry tomatoes and lettuce, and I am set.
Drinks wise I keep some Izze sodas or other fun sodas on hand, along with wine and beer. 
I keep my house pretty clean and tidy, just because that's who I am. 
Perhaps most importantly I keep in mind that people aren't really coming over to judge my house, or food. They are coming for good company and fun. If things aren't perfect, so what? I think its that attitude more than anything that you need to have at hand to be successful at entertaining.
Good luck.
