All work and no play makes dull gals. You know my mantra — hospitality is portable. You don’t need fancy to make fun. Here the girls are closing the books and organizing the files after a 10-hour day of staffing the registration booth at the Hearing Loss Association of America Convention 2012. We were out of town and living out of suitcases.

Entré moi with some scrounged items: packs of Crystal Light, water bottles, soda, ice, plastic cups, small snack bags of pretzels, and vodka for those who wanted a splash. VOILA! We have hospitality.

Have some fun…show up with some hospitality where no one expects it. They’ll be glad you did.
