The Day Before
It’s Wednesday morning. The day before the big meal of the year. What’s your schedule for today? Did you make your pies last night?
For me, the day before the big meal is prep day. I begin with the house:
- Dust
- Straighten
- Fluff the pillows on the sofa
- Set out candles
- Make sure you have plenty of toilet tissue
- Fill your soap dispensers
- Pull out additional guest towels
- Set the table
- Pull out the board games
- Match your serving dishes with your food dishes
Then I move later in the day to the food prep. Without knowing your menu, I will simply suggest the general things:
- Cut the vegetables
- Set out the non-perishable ingredients
- Pull out all the baking dishes and any tools you may need
- Review your recipes and do anything today/tonight that will not spoil overnight
- Make yourself a drink, you will need it.
Don’t allow yourself to be stressed out. You are preparing a meal with love for those you love. What better way to spend your day tomorrow?
