Are you trying to plan the perfect party?

Every year around this time, my house gets turned into a haunted house ready for my Halloween guests to be spooked on Halloween Day. I love planning parties and get-2-gethers. This year I almost said no to the party simple because parties are alot of work to plan. I have a Halloween party every year so all our friends can have a place to go and have safe fun with the kiddos. But this is only the first of many parties this Fall season. Next comes Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years. My mother never threw parties at our house. We always attended parties at others homes. So I really don't get much plaaning ideas from my mom. I have to look elsewhere for ideas, help and tips.

Kelly Ripa who I just adore has a new tool to help us out this season. Check out the Kelly Confidential Perfect Party Planner site. You can find so much on there from tips to recipes from top chefs, and party planners. Each week they will present three options for an element of the ultimate Thanksgiving celebration.

Each week you log on and choose an element for your party plan, you are automatically entered for a chance to win a luxury double wall oven with Perfect Turkey® Button from Electrolux.

Have fun party planning! Take lots of notes. Print the recipes you like, I know I will. I can only cook so many things. And by cooking I mean take out of the can and warm. hahahhahah.... Give me a break. I am learning. Cook what the Top Chefs are cooking. I am not a cook but at least I try. My guests know when I have found new recipes. Those are the new items I add to my food selection. SO back to my party planning I go.
