#123 Hospitality Tips - How to Make Having Guests Doable and Simple

 I'm going to do two shorter episodes this week about hospitality. The first one will be tips about hospitality - what can make it easier for you, and the second one will be ideas that you can use for your meals when you have guests over. It’s always a good idea to have meals planned in advance, and we'll talk more about that in the next episode. So, let’s talk about hospitality. It always works out a lot better than we expect, doesn't it - most of the time, at least. I think the important thing is to remember that it's about the people, the connection, and the fellowship. It’s not about being perfect, or having everything just right. You really want to make hospitality be low-stress for yourself, otherwise you're not going to do it. Sometimes I've fallen into the trap, even with extended family, of trying to make everything perfect because I feel like they're judging me. Actually, what they remember is the special things, the connection, and the memories.
