Thanksgiving Tips
Thanksgiving Tips
- Teach the importance of every individual's self-worth vs. total family-unit activities, at your home style for food prep and other family-oriented activities.
- Choose to create a dish that will become your special-dish tradition at your home style.
- Unless on a diet, I would suggest fixing a dinner at home even if you're going some place else for dinner. If you had the time to learn to cook a new food item, what would it be? Maybe next year.
- Do not cook your turkey four or more days in advance--unless you're going to freeze it. Always discard any left-overs after the fourth day.
- How many of you know that you simply can't get the same batter by using certain off-brand products?
- Look for the "thankfulness" in your local community. What are you thankful for? Allow children to give their answers, too.
- Have games or activities available for young children while adults enjoy the Day. Be mindful of little eyes and ears when entertaining guests. Store alcoholic beverages in a separate refrigerator.
- Do you have a brand shout-out as a family tradition? Will you donate a canned-good non-perishable food item this year (place in mailbox, toss in box at a local grocery store, give to a shelter/food pantry)?
- How many of you have millennials in your unique home style? They are now considered the largest group of consumers in our country.
Family participation suggestion
I would like to support the efforts of stores and non-emergency businesses opening after 6 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day or closed on #ThanksgivingDay. So, I will highlight stores that have such business hours on Thanksgiving Day--hoping that you will support, too.
Don't shop or similar activities until after 6 p.m. America values #Familytime.
