Ingredients

Decorate your patio with potted herbs such as rosemary, thyme, basil, chervil, parsley sage and chives. They are decorative, fragrant and perfect ingredients for summer cooking.

Entertain responsibly - ask who the Designated Drivers are before the party starts and have a special mock-tail for them.

Rabidon't's

Don't run out of ice. If you have the space keep bags of pre-made ice at the ready in your freezer.

Don’t come up short on entertaining inventory. Invest in acrylic glassware, cocktail plates, serving bowls and platters.

When grilling don't use forks because they'll pierce the meat and you'll lose all those flavorful juices.

Don’t get fussy with food. Keep it simple, cubes of melon wrapped in prosciutto make for a quick and tasty summer treat.

Don’t let your patio be drab, dress it up with inexpensive throw pillows that can be used year after year.
