[quote=Anonymous]Plan your menu carefully and write out all the timing ahead of time to make sure all the food is on the table on time. Use post-it’s or a diagram to plan out your serving dishes and table placement. Have lovely appetizers/ cheese plate and drinks in a room that is NOT the dining room or kitchen to keep people out of your space. Serve warm spiced or herbed mixed nuts. Recruit 1-2 designated helpers and give them specific jobs. Make rolls ahead of time from dough - shape them like wreaths. Have place cards? A bakery by me makes adorable sugar cookie place cards with guests’ names on them. Serve a gorgeous array of cookies for dessert. Buy some and make some. If they are not fancy, they will not recognize the “by the pound” cookies from Whole FOods. [/quote]
