Hire A Caterer To Provide Treats For These Winter Gatherings

Getting together with friends can be a fun way to spend time during the winter. If you're hosting a wintertime gathering, you might not have the time or expertise to prepare the foods that you'll enjoy serving. If you're in this predicament, think about hiring a local caterer to take care of this job. While caterers can handle large events with hundreds of guests, they can also look after smaller gatherings in clients' homes. Using a catering professional for the following winter gatherings — even if it's just a few plates of appetizers — gives you more time to focus on the fun of the event instead of fuss in the kitchen.

Gift Wrapping

Some people wrap their gifts at the last minute before Christmas, but others enjoy getting together to wrap with a group of friends. Wrapping presents for the entire family can take hours, so it can be fun to gather together and share wrapping paper, creative ideas, and encouragement. If you're planning to have a few friends over for an afternoon of wrapping, think about what refreshments you want to serve. Your local catering service can provide a few platters of sandwiches and seasonal treats, as well as hot chocolate, chai tea, and other seasonal beverages.

Sledding

One of the best ways to spend a sunny winter day is sledding at a local hill with some other families. While there's nothing wrong with all of the families going their separate ways afterward, you might like the idea of having everyone over to your house to keep the fun going. Instead of cutting your sledding session short so that you can prepare some food, hire a caterer. A hearty spread such as a couple of types of soup, a pasta dish, and a selection of fresh rolls can be just what your hungry group needs after sledding.

End-Of-School Gathering

Some parents enjoy hosting a gathering for their children and their children's friends on the last day of school before the winter break. While you might have provided the food for this event in the past, think about the value of having a catering service look after the work for you. This is a time of the year that you're already busy preparing for the holidays, so the last thing that you need is to spend a day in the kitchen making food for the children. Your caterer can suggest a variety of fun, child-friendly food options that will make this gathering memorable for all of the attendees.
