Thanksgiving
Ah, Thanksgiving. Home cooking, family gethaves that can be added to your traditions to make the holiday a special one.
Turkey Tips
The holidays can be a stressful time, so here is some helpful advice to make sure you are prepared this year:
* Plan your menu at least a week before so you can go shopping as early as possible. You don't want to want to scramble at the last minute, fighting with old ladies over the last can of
cranberry sauce.
* If you're having dinner at your house, set the table the night before. It's one fewer thing to worry about!
* Try to prepare some of the dishes the night before so you can won't have as much to do on Thanksgiving.
* Ask your guests to bring a dish or a bottle of wine. You shouldn't be expected to prepare everything, nor should anyone show up empty-handed.
* Double-check your guest list. If Cousin Tommy is bringing along his new girlfriend, find out if she's a vegetarian.
* Be extra thankful this year and try to celebrate a
green holiday.
