When Sheli Adler and Debbie Davis of What’s Cooking Catering came in the NewsOk offices recently for a webcast, they brought some party tips and one of their favorite recipes for pumpkin bread.
Here are the Catering Party Tips: 1. Be careful about having too many hosts and hostesses for your parties. Feelings can get hurt if there are too many chiefs and not enough workers, especially when you really don’t know each other. Personalities can clash. 2. Have the guest or guests of honor not stand at the front door, because traffic will stop. Have them where you want the party to be…outside, cabana, living room. 3. For appetizers, always have a fork, unless it is finger sandwiches or something like cheese and crackers. 4. Always make sure your house can accommodate the number of people invited, particularly if there is a weather change. 5. Oklahoma wind does not cooperate with using balloons as centerpieces outside. 6. Service staff is well worth the money. The hosts have great intentions of helping, but they get busy with guests, and don’t have time to help. 7. Food is better served in one place instead of all over the house.
