[quote=Anonymous]Also, make it clear to people who are bringing things that they need to bring them ready to go; your kitchen won't have prep or cooking space available (except maybe reheating). Have a couple of coolers with chilling packs outside for drinks or refrigerator overflow. If you have a full-size freezer, start working your way through the contents now. A month before Thanksgiving, start filling it up with things that can be prepped and frozen: dressing, cranberry sauce, mac and cheese, stock for gravy (or the gravy itself). If this is going to be an extended event, try to front-load the actual meal so you don't have people puttering around and getting in your way and filling up on apps. After everyone has eaten, people can hang out and snack, run dishwasher loads, have seconds of pie, watch football with a turkey sandwich, whatever. Friday you can wake up to a clean kitchen and pie for breakfast.[/quote]
