Guests Will Be Here in Two Hours, and I Just Noticed the Floor - How to Get Your Home, Food, and Yourself Ready for a Visit Without a Full Renovation, Twelve Courses, or Pretending It Always Looks Like This

Guests Will Be Here in Two Hours, and I Just Noticed the Floor is a practical guide to preparing for a visit without spending the entire evening recovering from the preparations. Max Paradox explores the gap between what guests actually need and the elaborate inspection you have imagined they are about to conduct. Guests arrive in two hours, and you have decided to clean everything you own. This funny, practical guide explores useful priorities, realistic food plans, shared tasks, and ways to make the host part of the evening. You will learn how to choose the rooms and tasks that matter, prepare simple food without turning the visit into a catering project, share responsibilities, and welcome people without staging a domestic marathon. The aim is a calm, workable visit that still leaves room for conversation.
