Living Well

If  you enjoy having a party but hate the housework that goes into it; here’s a way to get the maximum bang for your dozens of minutes of housework:

Throw Two Parties

Yes, that’s right throw two parties back to back.

That way, you have only to do one really good clean – don’t worry, you can reward yourself with a good enough clean for the second party.

Clean the house, make food – have the first party.

The next day, the house will only need a small amount of tidying and if you planned the menu properly – you can make one batch of foods for both parties.

Better yet, you provide the party space and have everyone attending the first party to bring a dish. You can suggest a cuisine theme or be global and everyone bring a favorite.

That way, for your second party, you have a wide range of leftovers that no one has to be the wiser about and they will all be impressed with your sudden range and versatility in the kitchen. (Let’s face it, everyone you’d invite to your party would know you hate cooking too.)

Until next week, remember don’t stress – it only has to be a good enough thing.
