I've been there. Thing is - the people I have cooked for have downed a few vodkas in the next room....Thing is, try to stay calm! Don't drink too much...Keep cooking, visiting, etc. - If something turns out wrong, blame it on the stove/oven. I have, and it works. Good luck!

Cooking drunk probably isn't the best solution. Why are you so nervous- because they are breathing down your neck or because you want to impress them? Either way my suggestion is putting on some music and telling everybody to get out of the kitchen and let you work.

Don't use alcohol to overcome a problem because it could become a habit and being even slightly drunk is surely the last impression you want to make unless your relatives are alcoholics. Be your sober self and if that's not good enough for them then ;who cares?

Nerves are a tremendously regularly occurring area of each and every recreation. i'm uncertain what form of recreation you're in, i'm in a judged recreation, yet i'm particular that athletes in non-judged activities are only as fearful (probably greater... when you consider that triumphing/dropping is in basic terms as much as them and there is not any corrupt center guy or woman...). everybody gets fearful previously competitions or in stressful circumstances revolving around activities. in case you do not you're ether incredibly solid, incredibly boastful, or have distinctive prepare. do not set unrealistic expectancies for your self. while you're making a mistake you're making a mistake, not something you're able to do approximately it. watching for your self to place first or watching for to, i don't comprehend only watching for something that places distinctive stress on your self, is greater probably to make you shrink to rubble. desire this enables :)

Sit down for 10 minutes, put your feet up, play some Pink Floyd and light up a cigarette.
Not, just kidding!
