Most of us started the New Year with resolutions so lofty and vague they were bound to be broken by spring. Make your changes stick this year by making them attainable.

Let me set the stage for you… It’s day 7 with the kids home from school & you are entertaining a houseful of guests. You’ve already eaten all of the Christmas dinner leftovers, exhausted the family favorite recipes and ordered pizza (twice). Well have no fear, the “Dish It” lady is here!

Having friends over to celebrate the holidays should never be expensive, stressful or a lot of work. Remember the saying the “hostess with the mostest?” Well, scratch that, think of it as the “hostess with the leastest.” LESS IS MORE! The key to a fun evening is to keep it simple and casual. [...]
