How to Host the Best Yard Party | Food and Drink

Maybe it’s the heat or perhaps the lazy weekends that get the best of me, but there’s just something about summer that makes me favor simplicity when entertaining. I relish casual backyard gatherings free of place settings, invitations and intricate time-consuming menus. Instead I string up some twinkle lights, set out bubbles and chalk for the little ones and opt for easy-to-make eats. All are welcome! Just grab a chair or a spot on the picnic blanket in the yard.
