Hosting a BIG Party: The Home Hour, Episode 68

May 04, 2017

The More the Merrier? Or Too Much of a Good Thing? On this episode, Graham & Kirsten take entertaining to the next level as we discuss whether throwing a big blow-out party is really that much more work than hosting a small gathering? Kirsten just threw a backyard crawfish boil for 400 guests and we devote this episode to looking at what went right, what went wrong and whether or not she would to it again!
Links we mention:
Powder Cheese (to make mac & cheese for a crowd!)
Louisiana Crawfish Company
Catering from a grocery store deli 
On Episode 68, we get down to the details about hosting large parties and Graham gets the scoop from Kirsten on how her party got so huge in the first place?
Crawfish Delivery!

 We discuss why Kirsten chose to throw a crawfish boil, who was there to help her, how she entertained and fed the kids, and what was the surprisingly messiest part of the cleanup. We talk about how we both think differently than our spouses when it comes to what think makes a party great.
Graham and Kirsten also share some of their favorite hacks for feeding a crowd.

 

Kirsten’s not the only one entertaining this week (or killing crustaceans for that matter!) We also get to hear about the Graham’s latest event  “Ladies who lunch” turned “Ladies who Lobstah!”
