After all, summer fun is meant to be easy, don't you think? Have an Entertaining week! | | Adding Fun to Outdoor Parties Now that we're in the outdoor entertaining season, there's an easy way to add more fun to any party - games. Just by putting out a variety of outdoor games you'll bring out the kid in your guests. Instead of simply chatting and eating, they can dig into their competitive spirits by tossing a horseshoe or whacking a ball through the wickets. Here are my favorite outdoor party games. | Create a Patriotic Centerpiece Put together this festive, patriotic centerpiece for your summer parties. This centerpiece will take you no more than 5 minutes to complete once you have gathered your supplies. | Easy Hors d'Oeuvres for the Holiday Weekend Traditionally most people plan a cookout of some sort over this long holiday weekend.

These easy party hors d'oeuvres will take little time and can be prepped before you fire up that grill. | Gift Ideas for the Entertaining Grad When kids are little, it's very easy to choose birthday presents for them.
