[quote=Anonymous]I forgot to make the mashed potatoes for Thanksgiving this year. That has never happened - I am a very good and organized cook. We laughed about it and the truth was that we had so much amazing food that the potatoes wouldn't have cracked anyone's top three items on the plate so they weren't actually missed. That helped me realize that sometimes you don't "need" what you think you do. I go all out at Christmas so I feel you wanting everything to be perfect, but since my ideas would be centered on lists or other things you already have covered (never attempt to make a new dish for a holiday party!), my suggestion to you is to accept imperfection more readily this year. It'll be ok. (And I say this a bit tongue in a cheek as a very Type A person!)[/quote]
