How To Feel Your Absolute Best Before The Thanksgiving Feast As A Hostess

Thanksgiving is the day to be grateful and blessed about spending quality time with family and friends. It's all about enjoying a grand feast with people you love, sharing giggles and laughter, and celebrating each other's milestones. 

The fall fest often becomes overwhelming for the hostess. Finding the finest turkey, preparing the entire menu, setting up the decor, putting the guest list together, and finally deciding on the outfit. Your self-care or facial routine often fell by the wayside. Before you know it, you are caught up with a to-do list, neglecting your need to look and feel the best. Here, this article tells you how to look and feel your absolute best before the thanksgiving feast as a hostess. Read on 

1. Create an Ultimate Checklist for Stress-Free Planning

If Battles are planned, Exams are planned - so should the Thanksgiving Feast. And mind you, it's no less than a battle. Figuring out every detail in advance saves you from last-moment panic. 

1. The first thing in To-Do list should be the grocery shopping checklist. Scheduling it a week before will help you plan all the major aspects of the festival, such as decor theme, food menu, and types of wine to serve.
2. After finalizing the guest list, you must come up with food options to serve on the table to please everyone's taste.
3. Once deciding the menu and essentials, go through your cupboards and fridge to ensure you don't double-stock anything. 
4. Prepare a checklist for all the tools that go into food preparation. Like frying pans, carving knives, cast iron skillets, mixing bowls, dishes, and spatulas. Wash them and keep them aside in a separate cabinet. After this first step, half the battle is won. Once you've planned out every detail, you can finally say goodbye to the jitters before the feast.

2. Prepare the Food Beforehand.

Save yourself from a mid-day meltdown in the morning of thanksgiving by planning the entire dinner preparation of thanksgiving. Target food items that don't need to be made fresh can be served store-bought. The cranberry sauce can easily be prepared and kept in the fridge for two days. 

The same goes with the gravies. This way, Thanksgiving day will be reserved for the most treasured recipe- Turkey.

3. Delegate Responsibility among Family Members

Delegating responsibility among your family members will cut down your burden and give you some lighter moments before the feast evening. The children can take charge of decoration. Siblings and friends can become greeters. Keep in mind to put some happy-extrovert soul to lead the drinks table. Festivals are fun when responsibilities are shared, and burdens are reduced.

4. Pamper Yourself Before the Big Day

We often get carried away during the festival's spirit and completely neglect ourselves. Being the primary caretaker, pampering yourself amidst family celebrations is largely overlooked. So it goes without saying that you need to make an effort to look pretty after toiling yourself during the preparation. 

Why not make a checklist for buying outfits, choosing hair and makeup, waxing, facials, hair spas, and eyelash extensions?

Schedule your Waxing and Facial

Salons are usually fully booked 2-3 days before festivals, so you may have to wait for several hours or face disappointment.
