People bringing things and you only have to make certain items? Get all your plates, linens, glasses, candles/table decorations, and flatwear sorted tomorrow evening. No shame in buying some items from Whole Foods or wherever. Ensure there’s plenty of wine or whatever people will be drinking. Have a vague timetable in mind for how you want things to unfold. Have an empty dishwasher, if possible, before guests start arriving. Let people find their own seats. Keep in mind that mostly everyone wants to enjoy the day and are happy to be sharing a holiday. If anything goes wrong, try to find the humor and view it as fodder for a good story in future. Make sure you do the right things with the turkey and start it cooking early enough to be completely done in time. Have more gravy than you think you’ll need. Have a soundtrack/Spotify channel. Put out some easy apps so there’s less pressure on when dinner hits the table. Feel free to say dinner is at 4 or 5–no need to serve it in the early afternoon. [/quote]
