Party in a Box
Organizing for Entertaining
If you’ve looked at a calendar recently I’m sure you’ve noticed that Easter and Passover come early this year and today is already St. Patrick’s Day (Happy St. Pat's!) This time of year brings with it so many opportunities to celebrate and so many opportunities to stress about celebrating. For this week’s challenge let’s make entertaining as easy as possible. We’ll make a box of party supplies. Grab any box or container you have and as you come across supplies add them to the box. Oh and don’t forget to clearly label the box. Inside you might stash items like specialty tablecloths, paper plates and other products, and decorations. First but all the supplies in one box, but if you find you have too many of one type then you can make a second or third box for specific occasions. Let’s say you go all out on July 4th and have a neighborhood BBQ. You’ll need a single box just for the 4th. With all your supplies in one place you’ll have what you need when you need it. Plus you’ll be able to buy things at a discount off-season and have a place to store them. *Party Food Estimator Per Person*
Hors D'oeuvres
6 bites when preceding a meal.
4 - 6 bites per hour when hors d'oeuvres are the meal.
The longer your party and the larger your guest list, the greater the number of selections you should offer.
The Main Meal
Poultry, meat or fish - 6 ounces when you have one main dish, 8 ounces when you offer two or more main courses.
Rice, grains - 1.5 ounces as a side dish, 2 ounces in a main dish such as risotto.
Potatoes - 5 ounces
Vegetables - 4 ounces
Beans - 2 ounces as a side dish
Pasta - 2 ounces for a side dish, 3 ounces for a first course, 4 ounces for a main dish
Green Salad - 1 ounce undressed weight
Make your box this week; I know you’ll feel great when you have your supplies in one place. Until next Monday have a clutter-free week, Jamie
