Before and after the party

Im in charge of the dinnerparty:

The day before I have to make a list of everything I will need for the party. Food, wine, even if I have enough plates, glasses, chairs. I have to clean out the entire house, which I think is the most difficult part of planning a party at home. The day of the party iI have to do groceries to buy the items in the list. I have also to make sure of having invited all my friends. I can’t let anyone out. The day after the party the house will be a mess. So it’s time to move to a different place and start over in a clean and tidy environment. I’m kiddin of course. It’s time time to clean out the house again…and consider for the next occasion that attending a party is better than planning it.

For the dinner party, I made a list of the ingredients yesterday. I called the supermarket and bought everything I needed. I’m calling my friends today to confirm if all of them are going to come. I will cook some of the recipes tonight and I will prepare the rest tomorrow. The dinner party is going to be tomorrow at 7 p.m.

I’m in charge of the dinner party.

1. The day before:

• I have to go and buy anything I need for the dinner party, food, decorations and other things. At some point I will prepare the recipes that need to be marinate the day before. Then I proceed to check if everyone it’s going.

1. The day of the party:

• I wake up too early to clean the house and start to cooking, when everything is perfect, I go and prepare myself with the perfect outfit and wait to people to assist.

1. The day after:

• I relax and take my time, then I clean the house and the dishes to finally I clean myself too and finally, go to relax again

My planning:

Before the party I need to know how many people are coming, what I’m going to prepare and have all the ingredients or dishes ready, depending on the dish I’m going to make.
.
After the party I need some people to help me organize and clean up the space.

Ok, the first thing that I need before inviting my friends to a party is obviously bought all ingridients for my recipe on Monday if I have the party on Tuesday, and get all ready about the dinner, breakfast, or the lunch, all with details and if I have a short recipe my time for cooking it can be around 3 hours that it’s good for me… The second step is has videos, music, or movies with Nachos or something like this to take a good moment. And after the party I must have the sponge ready for wash the dishes, hahahah…

A day before we meet for dinner, I’d buy the ingredients and drinks. Later, I’d clean up the house. On the dinner day, I’d prepare the place for my guest to have a great night. On the day after the dinner, I’d clean up the mess.

Im in charge of the dinnerparty:

The day before I have to make a list of everything I will need for the party. Food, wine, even if I have enough plates, glasses, chairs. I have to clean out the entire house, which I think is the most difficult part of planning a party at home. The day of the party iI have to do groceries to buy the items in the list.

It’s time time to clean out the house again…and consider for the next occasion that attending a party is better than planning it.

The day before
I make a list for the ingredients I need, for this party I prepared a delicious pizza italian, I go to the supermarket and buy all things

The day of the party
I wake up early because I need to clean the house very well, in the afternoon I am ready to start cooking, I prepared all ingredients in the table y let´s go, in this moment my frinds is in the house maybe drink a cup of wine haha why not?

The day after
I wake up and relax because I tired for sure

I’m planning to make Chicharron in green sauce today.
It’s simple to make and is delicious.
I have to order chillis because they like very hot and me too.
I bought some ingredientes yesterday, then only need buy one ingredient.
Well, maybe I 'm going to buy some fruit.
I love to cook. But you now what the most difficult thing about organizing a party is?
It’s washing the dishes ans clean the stove after the meeting.
Anyway.
My friends will be here in four hours, so I don’t have free time.
I might ask one of my friends to help me clean everything after the party.

Ok, I need to start with as many friends as I invite to make purchases of what is necessary for dinner or breakfast that is going to be made, also if my house would fit the guests or I would have to rent some place for the event, also confirm who can come early or at night to provide the time and date of the event. Having to go renting the place at least 2 to 3 days in advance. Buy what I need a day before the meeting to prepare on time the dinner or breakfast that is going to be made.

I will need one or two people to clean the place either at home or in the rented place, have to prevent the cost of the people who would help clean up the mess created on the day or night of the event and then pay them. And on the day of the event have everything in place about three hours before.

Previously, you should already have a separate location, rent tables, chairs and staff for the occasion, then have defined 2 entress and three menus for dinner, along with two dessert alternatives.
For that day , I should have hired a chef to bring the food just to heat it up on the spot, and bought the drinks for the event
For the day after the event I should have people available for cleaning, logistics and transportation

I’m going to have a party at my house.
I can’t even imagine planning the party one day before, my anxiety just won’t let me do it, so I start at least one week earlier, making a list of what I need, like what we are going to eat, to drink and the desert, picking the songs for the right playlist and going to the grocery store to buy everything, then when I’m sure I have everything I need I can relax and a day before the party start to cooking and cleaning the house, so the day of the party I can enjoy because I took care of everything in the right time.

tomorrow is the party for my boyfriends birthday and i right now i need to do a list for the food, i think something like pizza cause he loved it, some soda, also something for the snacks, that will be nice some chips and of course the chocolate cakes birthday. well done i have all from this list, so now i would do call all his friends to ask them if they are free for tomorrow night.
Im so happy they will coming, this will be a great party.

Im in charge of the dinnerparty:

The day before I have to make a list of everything I will need for the party. Food, wine, even if I have enough plates, glasses, chairs. I have to clean out the entire house, which I think is the most difficult part of planning a party at home. The day of the party iI have to do groceries to buy the items in the list. I have also to make sure of having invited all my friends. I can’t let anyone out. The day after the party the house will be a mess. So it’s time to move to a different place and start over in a clean and tidy environment. I’m kiddin of course. It’s time time to clean out the house again…and consider for the next occasion that attending a party is better than planning it.

For my dinnerparty, yesterday I bought the things that I need to cook the dinner and today at 1pm I’m going to clean my house and the garden for the party, after that I’m going to star to prepared the dinner and my husband will go for the wine at the supermarket. The party is at 8 pm and all my friends will come here. So, after the funny part, We need clean our house, tomorrow we will do it.

The day before i think about all the ingredients needed for the dinner and buy them in a grocery or supermarket, i buy many disposables as needed as well. So when it’s tomorrow day, i need to prepare the dinner and count how many people will come, doing that make me know how much dinner quantity i need to make.

Things I need to do the day before the party, the day of the party, and the day after the party.

• Ok, one of the first things I need to do before the event is clean the house, call my friends and check who will come to the party, that is crucial because I need to know how much food I have to buy. I could probably make a chat group to decide what activities to do at the party and what things everyone could bring to the house to make the experience less expensive. (I’m only thinking about the inflation).

• On the day of the party, I would go to the supermarket, and then, I would cook the food. After that, my only preoccupation could be enjoying the moment with my friends and trying to make this a good experience.

• The following day there is nothing but cleaning the house while I feel sorry about myself for how dirty it is.

for a grill with my family this sunday, now i goint to confirm how many people will attend this day. yesterday i brought the meat, tomatos, onions and some beers, i would like clear my house tomorrow and will to order for leave everything ready for on friday night , we goint to have a amazing meet

• What do you need to do before to the event?
  First, I need plannig the party so… I need to watch my resources and see what I have. I need to orde some vegetables for dinner and wines too. I need to check the sound equipament because music is very essential for tonight’s gathering.
• What do you need to do after the event?
  Well, I need to get some garbage bag… you know, I need to sweep the floor and clean everything. Everything must be in order.
