I’ve hosted Thanksgiving for a few years now, and it’s my absolute favorite. I love seeing all my loved ones under my roof, and I think Thanksgiving comes without a lot of the pressure of gifts and overstimulation that Christmas does. Also, give me cranberries and stuffing any day of the week. 

A few years ago, I made a little prep guide that I shared on Instagram, but I lost it somehow! I decided to bring it back as a full sized PDF to help you out in your own Thanksgiving prep. Your preparation might look a little different depending on the size of your gathering, or on the amount of cooking you do yourself. I love for everyone to feel like they contributed a little something, so we do ours more potluck-style. Eddie and I handle the turkey, stuffing, and a couple of other things, and we ask family members to bring the dishes we know they make really well. 

But either way, I think this checklist covers most of the basics, and I hope it’s as helpful to you as it has been to me!
