Quando pensamos em hospitalidade, nossas mentes costumam ir a restaurantes, hotéis, espaço de eventos, mas muitas vezes não nós hospedamos nossos amigos e familiares em casa. Mas, em sua essência, a hospitalidade é criar um ambiente acolhedor e agradável para os outros - e isso inclui nossa família e, muitas vezes, em nossas casas. Considerado como garantir que todos se divertissem e fossem alimentados para casa, regados, embriagados e com um pouco de entretenimento para inicializar. Se alguém queria uma cerveja gelada, uma coca refrescante ou algo um pouco mais forte, eu queria ter certeza de que eles tinham opções.
This last Bank Holiday weekend, I had the pleasure of hosting a large family BBQ for my birthday, and it reminded me that being hospitable to our loved ones is just as important, if not more so, than any other gathering.
Every successful event starts with good planning and ultimately “success” was deemed as ensuring everyone had a great time and went home fed, watered, tipsy and with a little entertainment to boot.
I believe that a good host always anticipates their guests’ needs, and this was no exception. Whether someone wanted a cold beer, a refreshing coke, or something a bit stronger, I wanted to make sure they had options.
A variedade de comida era igualmente importante; Fiz questão de atender às preferências de todos, desde grampos clássicos de churrasco, como hambúrgueres e cachorros -quentes a opções vegetarianas, como salada de queijo feta e salada de batata. Com o clima imprevisível em mente, decidi entrar em um mirante. Foi uma pequena adição que fez uma grande diferença, fornecendo cobertura a partir desta ocasião, um pouco de garoa. cuidado. Tivemos jogos para as crianças, espaços confortáveis para os adultos conversarem e muitas oportunidades para todos se conectarem, também mudamos a TV para fora para permitir que ninguém perdeu a partida prevista do LFC às 16h30 - que se tornou o entretenimento do Pinacol após o meu discurso anual de agradecimento. Trata -se de garantir que todos se sintam bem -vindos e valorizados. Hospedar este churrasco me lembrou a verdadeira importância da hospitalidade, especialmente dentro de nossas próprias famílias. Por ser um anfitrião atencioso e atencioso, pude criar um ambiente em que essas conexões pudessem florescer. By providing comfy and covered chairs for the oldies, zero percent beer/cider for the drivers, a few little gifts for the kiddies, cushions and regular checks on my two pregnant cousins, a careful eye on every possible step, extra for a few of the oldies wondering around.
But food and drink aren’t the only things that make an event successful. With the unpredictable weather in mind, I decided to get in a gazebo. It was a small addition that made a big difference providing cover from, on this occasion, a little drizzle.
This kind of forward thinking is what hospitality is all about – thinking ahead to ensure your guests are comfortable no matter what.
On the day of the BBQ, my focus was on creating a warm, inviting atmosphere where everyone could relax and enjoy themselves.
I wanted to ensure that everyone felt included and cared for. We had games for the kids, comfortable spaces for the adults to chat, and plenty of opportunities for everyone to connect, we also moved the TV outside to enable nobody missing the anticipated LFC match at 4.30pm kick off – which became the pinacol entertainment after my annual thank you speech.
Hospitality is about more than just the physical elements of a gathering; it’s about making sure that everyone feels welcome and valued. Hosting this BBQ reminded me of the true importance of hospitality, especially within our own families.
These gatherings are not just about sharing food and drink—they’re about strengthening the bonds that tie us together. By being a thoughtful and considerate host, I was able to create an environment where those connections could flourish. By providing comfy and covered chairs for the oldies, zero percent beer/cider for the drivers, a few little gifts for the kiddies, cushions and regular checks on my two pregnant cousins, a careful eye on every possible step, extra for a few of the oldies wondering around.
It’s easy to overlook the role of hospitality when it comes to family, but this is where it starts. Ao mostrar cuidados e atenção aos nossos entes queridos, definimos o padrão de como tratamos os outros em todas as áreas da vida.
As I reflect on my birthday BBQ, I’m filled with gratitude for the time spent with family and the joy of being able to host them in a way that made everyone feel welcome and appreciated, including the family tradition of a Costco cake.
