Put on your favorite holiday music, and rock out with that vacuum. Don\u2019t forget to make sure you have the dishware necessary for your guest list!<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong><em>Meal Prep<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 This is a two-day checkbox: The night before your event, you can save time by preparing the foods that will hold overnight, such as potato dishes or cold dishes. Take care of the rest of the meal starting early in the morning, and try to intermix prep for items that will take a while to cook with prep for items that don\u2019t require the oven or stove, such as sides of cranberry sauce or salads.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Extra Suggestions to Incorporate<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong><em>Wrap As You Go<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 Don\u2019t wait until the last minute to wrap up the gifts.
