two to three days before the gathering:

shop for all groceries and make dessert. Refrigerator cakes are wonderful for large gatherings because they can be made in advance and rather than getting dry, they actually get better as the days go by. On the day of your event, simply open the fridge and dessert is served.

The following cakes are excellent choices:

Mandarin Orange Cake

Daddy’s Coconut Cake

Butterfinger Cake

One cake for every ten people is a good rule of thumb.

one to two days before the gathering:

make your main course. Stews and chilis are great this time of year. More filling than soups, their warmth and meal-in-one convenience can’t be beat for serving a crowd. These are all excellent choices for making ahead of time, as they all taste even better once their flavors have had time to blend and develop. A double recipe will easily feed ten people.

Make sure you have hot sauce and crackers. If you are serving chili, make sure you have shredded cheese, sour cream, and any other toppings your family likes.

Aunt Louise’s Beef Stew

Hamburger Stew

Chicken Stew

Christy’s Chili

Allow the stew or chili to cool and store in the refrigerator.

the day of the gathering:

set the buffet or table. Heat up the stew or chili and make bread. Good choices are:

Terri’s Dixie Cornbread

Hoe Cake

Open up your home and enjoy your guests!
