Thanksgiving isn’t just about cooking; it’s an art of hosting that demands early and thorough preparation. To ensure a smooth celebration, start getting ready early in the month.
This guide is perfect for both first-time hosts and those looking to refine their Thanksgiving routine:
- Two weeks before: Confirm who’s attending and what’s on the menu. Clear communication with guests bringing dishes is key to a well-organized feast.
- One week before: Write down everything you’ll need, from groceries to extra chairs and dishes. Clear out your refrigerator to make room for all the ingredients and prepared dishes.
