Let Them Bring Food! How and Why to Let Your Guests Contribute Food to your Gathering.

Somewhere in culture we learned that it is unacceptable to ask or allow our guests to bring food to our gatherings. While we're not telling you to bring a potato salad to a formal gala, we will be sharing how to navigate this in everyday hospitality. In today's episode we break down 4 main reasons why you should let your guests contribute food and how to ask or organize that as well. 1: You Can't Do it All, Financially & Time 2. It makes people feel more comfortable. 3. It better supports those with dietary needs and families with young kids 4. It celebrates various cultures at our tables and acts as a conversation piece. Towards the end of the episode, we will teach you how to map out your dinner so when your guests ask what to bring, you don't end up with 50 people bringing brownies. We've all been there! Join us as we tackle one of hospitalities biggest misconceptions and look at it in a new light. Support the show
