Wow, can you believe that it is November the 1st? Where has 2016 gone? So, with that in mind, we have to start preparing for Thanksgiving.
1st Finalize your guest list.
If you've decided to host Thanksgiving this year, now is the time to finalize your guest list. It is important to know how many people you will need to accommodate.
2nd Do I have enough?
Make sure that you have sufficient tables and chairs for your guest. By starting now you will know if you will need to borrow or rent more tables or chairs. This is also a good time to take a look at your dinnerware and napkin collection. If you are using real china, glassware and flatware (if you are having a formal dinner), make sure that you have enough.
3rd Planning your menu
It is also a good time to figure out what you will be preparing so you can watch for the sales. Each week different merchants will have you desired ingredients on sale during this month. Stock up while they are good prices. Check for food allergies. For whatever reason, many of us have developed food allergies and it really sucks when you can't eat because there are nuts and berries in everything. LOL Fish can also be a big no, no for many people as well.
Hopefully, this gets you off to a good start. We will talk more about this over the next few weeks.
And as always remember to...live Blessed
