Valentine Party Prep - Here is EVERYTHING I had ready for when people walked in the door to my recent Valentine’s Day Party: 🌶️ The coffee table served as the appetizer spot. We had chips and two salsas, Mama Leah Dip, Queso, and Mexican Layer Dip. Everything was made the day before and waiting to be placed on the table. The queso was warmed in the oven (your girl doesn’t own a microwave!). 🍽️ The dinner table was set and ready a few days before. I haven’t hosted SIX people around this table, ever, so I kept walking by making sure it was going to be enough room. 🧀 The big “Topping Roulette” was so much fun! A giant @goldenrabbitenamelware platter had a vintage relish tray inside it, and a coupe glass completed the servingware for all the toppings. 🍹 Drinks were on top of the Icebox Bar, the Drink Tree decked out with heart glasses from @anthropolgie and my silver teapot and coffeepot filled with Watermelon Margaritas and a Mocktail version. 🌮 The sideboard had the chips and Chalupa, ready to go! I had found that (unpolished!) silver chafing dish that worked SO well!! I live by a list on any day, but especially party day!! When you host a gathering, you get to make the decisions. ✅ YOU decide what you want to make and have at your party. ✅ YOU decide whether it’s a labor intense dinner or an easy dinner. ✅ YOU decide how you spend your time during the party. I slipped away for about 10 minutes to assemble the Topping Roulette while people snacked on chips and dip. How does this make you feel?! . .
