Show Notes: Holiday prep secrets.

  1. Make a list (mine tend to be general – if you are detailed go for it!
  2. Prepare things way ahead of time. Ideal items: casseroles, prep items like onion, onions and peppers, soups, stews, lasagna, mashed potatoes, stuffing, etc.
  3. Buy in bulk – crackers, appetizers (salsa, hummus, etc.)
  4. Extra gifts to have on hand (bless people twice with this holiday prep secret)
  5. Bake extra – two cakes and freeze one, make smaller cakes to gift, extra cookie dough and more.
  6. Fresh fruit and nuts for decorations
  7. Use “broken” ornaments upside down in a glass bowl
  8. Kid decorations – make it special
  9. Music – get that playlist ready.
  10. Wrap gifts as you buy them.
