No Sugar, No Wheat, No Meat, No Nuts
Your guests are on new diets: vegetarian, vegan, no-sugar, no wheat and no dairy. And, (think hazelnut stuffing)...no nuts! Too bad you didn't know sooner...
What can you really DO? Sure you can turn into a super control freak but your stress levels will go through the roof. Try these three practical tips and enjoy the ride:
* All systems GO Check all physical systems: stove, fridge, and plumbing. Gas in the car, and air in the tires.These systems seem to collapse in anticipation of lots of guests.
* Delegate--don't try to do it all alone This is a time for doing things together. Get help with planning, shopping, decorating, preparing and cooking. Don't go it alone. For special diet requests, tell people to bring dishes that they can eat.
* Have a good laugh Laughter is a top proven remedy for stress. Have a good laugh about the fiascos and the unexpected. Everyone will remember laughing and celebrating.
Just in case something "goes wrong," you can still have a grand time enjoying it!
Enjoy the Holidays with Less Stress!
