Share Your Wisdom

This blog is dedicated to acquiring tips and tricks from REAL WOMEN that have become experts in making the events of their lives extraordinary. This wisdom will be shared in the event-planning book I am writing called "Your Life and Times."

You're an event planner and probably don't even realize it! Did you ever direct your high school play or organize a school dance; plan a baby shower for your college roommate; volunteer to host the 3rd grade class Valentine's Day party; have a birthday party for your kids; organize a fundraiser for a sick friend; plan a company golf outing; serve as a scout leader or a Sunday School teacher; host a block party for the neighborhood; plan your parent's 50th wedding anniversary? If so, your experiences and your voice is what will make this book useful, unique and best of all fun to read.

Time-savers, planning tips, favorite websites, funny stories, or how you averted disaster on a special day - anything goes! But please only post what you are willing to share with the world - it could end up in the book!

ENTERTAINING AT HOME - MYTH #2

THINK YOUR HOME ISN’T COMPANY-READY? – THINK AGAIN!

Are you hesitant about inviting people to your home because you think it isn’t company-ready? Many people miss the opportunity to create great memories with family and friends because they think their home is deficient in some way. It’s time to bust those myths once and for all!

Myth #2 – I don’t have matching tableware, glassware, flatware. or serving pieces

No one said that everything has to match in order to entertain (and if someone did say it, they are dead wrong!). Mix and match pieces you already own, or borrow a set of dishes or flatware from a friend. There are also some disposable party items that are quite suitable that have the added bonus of providing quick and easy cleanup. Try the clear plastic style – it’s sturdy enough to wash and re-use if you wish, you can buy it in bulk at your local shopping club or party goods store, and it will blend nicely into any color scheme or décor.

More myth-busters to follow...
