It’s Thanksgiving week, and I have a lot to be thankful for during these challenging economic times. Professionally, I’m grateful that our public relations and advertising agency is solidly in the black.
Personally, I’m eagerly anticipating the arrival of 22 family members over the next few days. My husband and I are well-seasoned when it comes to roasting a turkey and making all the sides. That is, we’re experienced preparing for a group of seven or 10.
This Thanksgiving is different. When I add in breakfasts as well as Wednesday and Friday dinners, I figure we’ll be serving a grand total of 123 meals. Gulp.
I must admit, about a month ago the challenge seemed daunting. More than 100 meals for family and friends aged 4 to 82. We have just one oven. We didn’t yet have a plan. For me, that’s scary stuff.
