My best Thanksgiving prep trick comes from a highly unlikely source.
In our apartment, my husband and I use the narrow part of our kitchen wall as a makeshift scrum board, breaking down the components of what will need to get done before, during, and after a soiree via good old fashioned Post-its. The reason we opt for a physical space is because once the prepping and cooking get underway, your hands get dirty and wet—we find that moving tactile Post-its around is much easier than scrolling through our phones or navigating our laptops with caked fingers.
Also, by studying the recipes all together, we can see where we can be efficient and streamlined. For example, if multiple recipes call for preparing chopped onions or other aromatics, we can create a single Post-it for this task and just be sure to write out the amounts we’ll need for each recipe, ie:"Chop 2 cups of onions: 1) 1 cup for stuffing; 2) 1/2 cup for gravy; 3. 1/2 cup for soup.
These days, we are content just to see and spend time with loved ones at all! It might take a minute to get back into pre-Covid-level entertaining, but it’s worth dusting off the Post-its for. I’d love to know your tried and true techniques for keeping the trains running during the busy holiday season; be sure to share them with us all below!Your Everything Guide to ThanksgivingTop-notch recipes, expert tips, and more—it's all right this way.
