Organising a BBQ get together is usually hard work and sometimes you will end up asking yourself why what appeared like a good idea last week after you were filled with enthusiasm now appears to be a bit of a laborious task. Remember fondly the definition of character. Character is what’s left after the excitement for the project has passed away.
Now I’m not recommending that organising a barbecue party should be a test of character, I’m just trying to illustrate that it’s the same for most of us but if you break it out into it’s component parts it’s really not too much trouble. And then there are several sneaky methods for making life easy.
1. The Invitations
The first challenge is to prepare the invitations and you can make these really funky by downloading free BBQ clip art and simply copy and paste onto your Word document. If you not sure how to do this, follow these instructions:
Internet Explorer:
Right click on clipart with the mouse.
Select from the menu window “save picture as”.
Choose your folder where you want to save the BBQ clipart.
Click “save”.
Netscape:
Right click on clipart with the mouse.
Select from the menu window “save as” option.
Choose your folder where you want to save the barbecue clipart.
Click “save”.
Macintosh:
Place your cursor over the clip art that you want to download.
Hold down the mouse button until a menu screen pops up.
Choose the appropriate selection from the menu.
