Three signs your kitchen is not ready for guests

Hosting at home should be a pleasure, yet it often starts with stress. The problem is rarely the food: it is the space where it is prepared.

First sign: nowhere to set a serving dish. If counters are covered with items not needed for the gathering, clear them before cooking.

Second sign: you cannot find what you need in under a minute. When the pantry and cabinets have no defined homes, every recipe becomes a search.

Third sign: guests will walk through the kitchen and things are in view that you would rather not show. A functional space does not hide clutter: it removes it.
