I love Thanksgiving – a casual holiday dedicated to food and gratuity. What could better? This year, I’m so excited to be hosting Thanksgiving in our home. While planning and preparing a dinner for 15 guests is nothing new to me, Thanksgiving carries with it many traditions and expectations that must be upheld, for example, the menu, the day’s schedule and the fact that everyone contributes to the meal. And, like any other event in your home, just getting the house ready can be a challenge in itself! I’m sharing my to-do list with you and will be checking off my list as I post my “Thanksgiving Planner 10 Day Countdown” everyday. Feel free to share your favorite recipes, tips and traditions you’ll be preparing for this year!
