Holidays

These are your friends. Feed them right. Skip the brussel sprouts and go for the food every one will enjoy. Also Thanksgiving is not the day to start your new diet. Use the good stuff, cook with salt, butter and eggs. Start tomorrow with the healthier alternatives.

Make sure you have plenty for everyone. Guests on Thanksgiving will typically consume;

? 2-3 Drinks, either alcohol or non-alcohol
? 4-6 Appetizers
? ¨ö to 1/3 pound of meat
? 2 servings of all the trimmings
? 1-2 slices of pie

Thanksgiving is a big day people tend to eat a lot, so prepare for the feast.

Have your table set before your guests arrive. Thanksgiving can be stressful without proper planning. Try wrapping your silverware in napkins so that guests can just grab and go. Have all your glasses handy with plenty of ice. Never allow your Thanksgiving guest to feel awkward by having to ask for a glass or ice.

Make sure your guests know where the trash can is. You can move it out from under the sink and set it where everyone can see. Also have one member of your family be in charge a trash patrol. Have them keep an eye on the garbage can so that it does not over flow.

Finally be prepared to send home leftovers. Everyone likes having leftover turkey and mashed potatoes, even your guests. By keeping on hand plastic bags or disposable containers you will be able to package up turkey leftovers for you and your guests.
