Last year was not the best Thanksgiving ever for me. I didn’t have enough seating for everyone Mark Walton Youth Jersey , I burnt the pumpkin pie and I was not impressed with my stuffing. It could have been worse though, my great aunt wasn’t able to pick apart the dining ware as I had just bought brand new from Pier One. Ha!

The one thing that I learned from last year was that I needed a plan. Not just any plan. I needed a Thanksgiving plan that would not end in a Thanksgiving horror story. I knew that this year I wanted to make sure that I didn’t burn any of the foods, while also creating wonderful food for my family, and I wanted to be able to spend some of that time with my family enjoying being together. I didn’t want to spend another year in the kitchen all day.

My Thanksgiving Day plan now consists of a few things. I’m going to run down a few of them here. Hopefully, they will give you some insight into how you can plan for your Thanksgiving so that you too can spend it with family and not be a slave to the stove.

First, I created a large list that detailed what I wanted to accomplish for the day of Thanksgiving. I made sure that I had my shopping lists for foods Malik Jefferson Youth Jersey , dinnerware, entertainment and any cooking equipment that I would need.

Then, I made a chart for seating arrangements and another chart that consisted of the seven days leading up to Thanksgiving. This second chart contains all of the things I need to do on each of those days so that I’m not pulling my hair out on Thanksgiving.

I made sure that I had all of my recipes out, in advance, and made sure that all of the ingredients I needed were on my shopping list. I made sure to double check this one!

I came up with some ideas for the kids, so that they weren’t bored while the guys hogged the tv for the football game and added the list of items that I would need to my shopping lists any non food related items went on the other list.

As the count down towards Thanksgiving Day approaches Sam Hubbard Youth Jersey , I ‘m looking at my charts and calender and can feel a wave of relief as I know that this year, I won’t be hyperventilating and stuck in the kitchen the whole time.

I hope that you take my advice and plan ahead.

Thanksgiving is a time to celebrate friends, family Nick Vigil Youth Jersey , and all of the wonderful blessings in life, but we all know what the most important part of the holiday really is-the meal! What better way to bring friends and family together to share in the day of thanks than by hosting a Thanksgiving Day potluck. Here are five details to consider before planning your Thanksgiving Day potluck:

Guests – Make a list of all the people you plan to invite to your Thanksgiving Day celebration, and call each person to confirm who will be able to attend. Be sure to clarify that the meal will be a potluck, so every guest will be contributing in some way.

The Menu – If you plan to host a traditional Thanksgiving meal, the menu will certainly include turkey, stuffing Joe Mixon Youth Jersey , potatoes, cranberries, and pie. The host is responsible for preparing the turkey, stuffing, and gravy, but your guests will be responsible for the side items and dessert.

Tip: If your guests have specific dietary needs or allergies John Ross Youth Jersey , you can ask them to bring a dish that will suit their needs, rather than assigning them a specific item to bring.

Guest Contributions – Create a category list of menu items and assign each guest (or guest family) to a specific dish in each category. This will allow you to avoid the possibility of duplicate dishes, while adding variety to your Thanksgiving Day meal. Here are some examples:

Appetizers-vegetables & dip, cheese & crackers, pickles & olives

Side Dishes-green salad, dinner rolls Jessie Bates III Youth Jersey , cranberries or cranberry sauce

Vegetables-corn, green beans, mashed potatoes, andor sweet potatoes

Dessert-pumpkin pie, apple pie, and cupcakes or jello (for the kids)

Host Contributions – The host is responsible for the most important dish Billy Price Youth Jersey , the turkey, as well as the dressing and gravy. The host should also provide the serving utensils, dinnerware, and the drinks (water, tea, soda Dre Kirkpatrick Youth Jersey , and coffee).

Tip: If you are serving wine with your Thanksgiving Day meal, you may want to request a guest bring a bottle of wine.

Serving Table – The table display is an important part of your Thanksgiving meal and should not be overlooked. Thanksgiving table favors and decorations will contribute to the overall mood of your holiday feast by creating a festive environment for your guests, and will complete your perfect Thanksgiving Day celebration.

So, you’ve been asked to or are thinking about hosting a Thanksgiving party to celebrate the holiday festivities this years. Hopefully you’ve given yourself enough time to prepare as Thanksgiving can be quite the event depending on the setup and the amount of guests that you will be having over to your home or wherever you have selected for your party. The first step in any good party is the planning phase. Taking the time to really think about all the choices that go into a Thanksgiving party ahead of time can really help cut down on the stress and hassle later and will have you better prepared should anything go awry when the big day comes.
