Making a Plan For Easter Dinner
Nothing settles our nerves and reduces your anxiety than having a well thought out plan. Having family or friends over can start your feeling to get overwhelmed when you think about having houseguests. And if you have a home with little ones you can get concerned that the house will stay a mess.
The solution to being frustrated and angry about the situation is to sit down and make a plan. First, brainstorm your menu plan. What do you want to have for dinner? Wright down from appetizers to drinks, to main dishes and side dishes.
Then start thinking of who is going to looking at ways to delete items. If you have a bachelor or bachelorette give them rolls or hot napkins or a beer. If your family member loves to cook, asked them to bring their two favorite side dishes. Any items you can cross off your list will make the planning and cost run a little smoother.
Now that you have your guest list and menu take a look at the house. First look at the areas where your guest will be celebrating Easter Dinner, kitchen, living room, dining room, deck.
What areas need attention for a quick pick up, and decorating. Next, if you are having an overnight guest which bedrooms need clean bedding, towels, and an Easter Bunny touch. A small Bunny display and maybe a small filled Easter Basket.
