Meal Planning – Yes You Can

Exhibit A

I am about to prove to most of you that you really do know something about meal planning.  I say most because some of you will get a pass and be invited to eat the Thanksgiving feast at someone else’s home.  Each year the ritual begins about a month out; looking through magazines, asking friends and family and watching the endless TV cooking shows.  You search for something different to serve for your Thanksgiving dinner; put together the list of things you will need for the meal, shop, cook, plate and serve…in other words Meal Planning at the highest level.  While all this preparation and work seems like way too much effort; just take a minute to remember the look on everyone’s face as you serve the meal.  Think about how much everyone enjoyed the food, the conversation and even thanked you for your efforts.

That last sentence makes my point.  It all is worth it in the end.  So what I propose is that you make an effort to do just a little of what you did for the feast.  Plan small meals, less complicated, less work but I bet you still will get those smiles and maybe even a thank you or two.
