This is the Last Christmas Prep-Along of 2021 and incidentally it’s also my first video podcast for Spotify! For those on watching/listening on Spotify I have been doing a Christmas Prep-Along series using my Planner and free printables since September on Instagram and YouTube (They’re available on YouTube if you’d like to catch up). This is the final Prep Along of the year and I have to apologise that I haven’t kept up with the weekly episodes. As soon as the end of November hit I got very busy! And unfortunately the Prep-Alongs fell to the wayside! But I am back for one final episode and I think think what I’m talking about today is one of the most crucial aspects of pulling of a successful Christmas Day (that is if you are hosting).

Christmas food, Christmas Day timings and table decor.
