We've all flown by the seat of our pants throwing a party. Sometimes, the party's a lot of fun, and
sometimes, well, we need a therapy session afterwards. Let's face it, if we're frazzled, the party's
atmosphere feels frazzled as well. We all know how much fun we have when the party is smooth.
When we're able to meet and greet our guests, laugh and enjoy the food and drink, be the social
butterfly. When we don't have to focus on what should of, could of, would of....
How can we always enjoy our own party? Cheat the clock, not the quality. It's all about organizing
the preparation into that done three weeks or more ahead, TWO days or less before and THREE
hours or less before the party. And, that's just the way the chapters are organized in this guide to
enjoyable cooking and entertaining. All along the way The Caterer's Cheat Notes teach
you classic cooking techniques with click on tips that make you comfortable to cook. With a recipe
or without. But, always with a plan.
This systematic 1-2-3 approach applies to any size group, any themed party, any time of the year,
and any menu. Simply stated this is our cheat sheet, that organizes you, helps you delegate, helps
you stay on schedule, and most importantly, helps you enjoy cooking and your own party. Let's get
this party started. OK a little corny, but you get the point...Step 1: Sounds Like a Plan.
