When hosting, I’ve noticed that guests often hesitate to use things like the blender, coffee maker, or oven, even if they’re told they’re welcome to. To make it less awkward, take a moment to demonstrate how to use these appliances beforehand. Show them where the settings are, how to operate them, and where everything is stored. It makes it easier for guests to feel comfortable using them without worrying about doing something wrong or needing to ask a million questions. Plus, it keeps the flow of your gathering smooth and stress-free
