[quote=Anonymous]Figure out the things that are really important to you and pare down the obligatory ones. --I do 90 percent of my holiday shopping online on black friday weekend. The gifts usually arrive a few days later and then I set aside a few hours to wrap them all. A few gifts that are left to purchase are wrapped as I buy them --decorations go up early, usually the week of Thanksgiving bc I want to enjoy December without getting the house ready --Try to space out grocery shopping so stock up on wine and pantry essentials like stock, flour, etc. for when we host Christmas --Keep a spreadsheet of meal plans for Christmas week --Always set my table, flowers, etc. day before hosting. Also take out platters with post it notes with what goes in them. Saves so much time[/quote]
