I am thinking of having a neighborhood party in April. I want to make it a Mystery Host party and invite everyone in my neighborhood. What kind of party do you think it should be? I have done pretty well with the three cheese garden pizza and the strawberry amaretto pastries. Should I just stick with what I know? I don't know most of my neighbors that well, and I am nervous that it might be viewed as just trying to get more money, but I also want to get to know my neighbors better too... Have any of you done this? How successful was it? Any suggestions would be helpful!
 
Make it a 'Taste Test' show and invite all the neighbors to do the taste testing of NEW recipes you haven't tried at shows yet. Have them fill out 'taste test' form with room for suggestions. focus on bookings rather than sales.
 
Hi Emily,Did you have your Neighborhood party? If so, How was it? I was thinking of doing the same, but I only know a few neighbors. Any ideas for me would be helpful.Thanks and regards, Vickie
