GET HELP FOR YOUR NEW YEARS PARTY
Its not so bad to be hosting a small party, but when you’re from a large family, it can add up to you spending all the time at the stove.
Ive decided this year to ask for help.
Im cooking the main dish but others will be cooking also.
Some will bring the mashed potatoes, some the vegetables, some the salad and some the dessert.
I supply the house, main dish, drinks, coffee, tea and all that goes with hosting, but I dont have the time to do it all.
Its great to be able to ask the rest of the family to do something and then we can all enjoy our time in the kitchen to prepare the whole meal together.
This way, we can all sit at the table at the same time.
BUT, before we sit to eat, we must open the Champagne!!!! It wouldnt be New Year without it.
So I’ll need to make sure I have plenty of clean glass for everybody, we can then enjoy the bubbles and it help start the conversation at the table!
I do hope you all have a great New Year’s party with your family and friends. The important thing is to all be together and have a good time.
May 2009 bring you all what you wish for.
