Tips For Your Thanksgiving Meal

Below are some tips to make your Thanksgiving Meal come of with out a hitch!

  1. Plan your meal in advance.
  2. Collect your recipes well in advance and keep them together.
  3. Ask for help. If you are expecting a big crowd ask some of your guests to bring an item. Ask others to lend a hand with other details.
  4. Shop for everything you can early to get them out of the way. Last minute shopping will put a kink in your master plan.
  5. Things like cranberry sauce and slaw can be made a day in advance, freeing up valuable time for the big day. Clean out the refrigerator.
  6. Turkey Day! Make a plan. No what needs to be cooked separate from the bird.
  7. Don't Panic-This is fun, relax and enjoy it!
