HOLIDAY SANITY

We are 10 days away from Thanksgiving,  44 days away from Christmas. The most glorious days of the year can bring on a lot of joy and anxiety.  We will be providing you with tips and suggestions to assist you with every detail of the holiday season. 

For the Hostess we have a few tips and details that will help make your Thanksgiving Celebration very smooth. 

• Prepare your menu and shopping list now. Shop for special ingredients early to avoid the lines and shortage on particular items.

• Fresh turkeys have very good flavor. (makes a tasteful broth) Order early from your grocer.

• Make a list of details you can do each day leading up to Thanksgiving. 

• Decide on a buffet or sit-down dinner. Each set-up requires different accessories to make it beautiful and welcoming.

• Don’t forget alcohol for cocktails.  Guest should be served or have access to a refreshing drink or cocktail when they arrive. 

• If you are frying a turkey for the first time, read the directions ahead of time. Don’t be afraid to ask for guidance from someone with frying turkey experience. 

• Masterbuilt Electric Fryer is my fave for smoking a turkey! Juicy, tender and flavorable to the pallet!  Your oven can be use for other items.
