Tips:
- Begin by making a guest list. Keep the crowd small for less stress.
- Two weeks ahead, confirm your menu and put a plan down in writing.
- Choose sides, starters, and desserts to make ahead.
- Break down recipe tasks; list time frames for each.
- Balance recipes to make smart use of the stovetop, microwave, and oven.
If a recipe flops, forget about it. Enjoy the abundance already on the table!
