There’s always a holiday or celebration right around the corner…
- Easter is coming, not to mention graduation open house season and Mother’s Day.
- After that it will be summer cook-outs, Father’s Day, and 4th of July.
- Before you know it we’ll be at Thanksgiving and Christmas again, with New Year’s Eve and Superbowl parties quickly following!
- And there’s always a birthday party to plan.
- We also like to have “just because” parties now and then with friends or family, or even last-minute “driveway parties” with neighborhood friends.
- Even when it’s our turn to host bible study here, while it’s totally low-key, there’s still food to prepare and things I need to remember to do.
Does Entertaining Stress You Out?
It’s great that we have so many reasons for getting together with those we enjoy being with, but it can be stressful. I’ve made it easier for you with the tips I’ve learned about planning ahead for a shindig. Maybe you’re a “natural” host or hostess and entertaining is no big deal, but if you’re someone that would like help organizing whatever event is in your future, this guide will be just the thing. I’ll help you calmly plan everything ahead of time. Not only will you be sure not to forget anything, but you’ll also DE-STRESS the whole experience so you can enjoy yourself as much as your guests are sure to.

Hi Kelly,
Do the recipes differ from Nourishing Tradition recipes?
Nicole
Hi Nicole,
Yes, these are my own recipes that are all based on NT principles. They’re all tried and true recipes from my kitchen and good ones for groups because they can be made ahead easily.
Kelly
Awesome! Love NT principles but sooo difficult trying to find recipes that go along with them. Thanks Kelly! Placing my order now!
Nicole
Can I download into a flash drive? I do not have a printer.
Yes, you can download into any file you’d like. It will probably first go to your downloads folder, then just cut and paste into your flash drive.
Hi, Kelly!
Your guide has some excellent party ideas and I love your recipes.
I just wanted to let you know how much I love your party planning guide!
It will be very helpful for me. I used to throw parties at the last minute with no stress, but as I get older I worry about them more and more
Thanks so much!
Ellen, thanks for your sweet feedback!
Kelly
OH! VERY cool! You know, we had guests this weekend and i cooked traditional and they ate it up without a fuss at all, in fact they loved it and it made me think…if you dont tell folks you cooked something differently, they will probably just love it anyway! I did tell them we drank raw milk and to bring their own pasteurized if they wanted it-no go, they drank and loved the raw stuff! Thanks for sharing on the two for tuesday recipe blog hop!

How cool!! What a wonderful idea…I bet this will be invaluable to many people. Thanks so much for sharing it with us at Two for Tuesdays this week!
Kelly, this sounds like such a wonderful resource! I love entertaining and I usually find it fun instead of stressful, but even with that I’m sure I could benefit from this! Thanks for sharing it with our Two for Tuesday crowd!
I haven’t even read the 2 books offered here, but from the comments, it sounds like what I am looking for. We have switched to raw milk, organic eggs, cheese and as much organic food as possible, really. It’s incredibly hard to find recipes that use simple, sometimes raw ingredients. They all have canned-this or processed-that. I”m excited to see what you have to offer. Ordering now
Hi Kelly, My PayPal account shows my payment went through for the guide and party planner, can you tell me if you got it on your end and how long before they arrive? Want to give it as a gift soon.
Thanks!
