GET ORGANIZED
You know that cool-as-a-
cucumbcr hostess who says,
“W h y don’t vou pop over for
drinks in anhour?” W ith a
little planning, you can be her.
^ Think through everything
I you need—right down to
the toothpicks—to serve a few
favourite hors d’oeuvres, then
gather it all on a tray. Keep the
tray stocked f u ll-time, so when
the guests arrive you don’t have
to think. Just add food and serve.

tequila, and whisky are three of
the most versatile.

A wide-mouthed glass
canister is both storage and
dispenserforcocktail napkins
(unwrap the top package). Pick
up napkins in pretty,contrasting
colours for visual appeal.
