[quote=Anonymous]One year our host got sick Thursday morning and cancelled. We had to menu plan, shop and cook for my parents, my family, and my sister’s family all in a few hours. We made it work…with some planning, you can get it all done on Wed and Thurs. Maybe consider also doing it Friday if you’re staying around all weekend to give yourself more time? Simplify your dishes and meal plan now. Place a grocery order to be picked up Wednesday morning that includes any baking pans you might need. Instead of buying several new bottles of things like spices, bring what you need in small containers from home. I don’t usually fly for holidays but we do some long car rides and I have been known to pack a cup of flour, a teaspoon of baking powder etc. And definitely rely on some premade things from a local store and add homemade family favorites.[/quote]
