This episode got me so excited for the holiday season! Loved all of your ideas. In addition to doing tasks ahead for the day of a holiday or edible gifts, I like to have extra meals (or components) in the freezer. In my home, we’re entertaining more, we might have out of town guests, and we just have more to do in general, so keeping the freezer well stocked with soups, breads, cooked grains, meatballs, etc, helps my sanity immensely.
Gena that is a great point. I can remember many times doing epic days of cooking ahead for some holiday event and then going out to dinner because I just could not stand cooking one more thing. Thanks for the reminder 🙂 Gotta “feed the freezer.”
