My FREE gift to you! A copy of my eBook Kitchen Basics- How to Stock Your Kitchen With the Tools You Really Need to Cook. This book gives you a step-by-step process to assist you in knowing what you need to stock your kitchen to aid you in preparing home cooked meals. After reading the book I ask that you please comment on how it assisted you in your kitchen needs.

The holiday season is vastly approaching. If you are feeling like time is moving too fast and are trying to figure out how to prepare you can follow these simple tips for planning the holiday season. It is very simple you need to make a list. My mentor, Dr. Stacia Pierce has taught me the importance of making lists. When you write things down you can remember what you need to accomplish and it keeps you from feeling rushed and over whelmed. You will want to create the following lists:

• holiday menu
  
• grocery shopping list for holiday food
• gift list
• holiday decor
• guest list

After you have created your list then you can organize them by putting things on a time line so that you can do something daily to meet your established deadlines. By doing something daily you will find that you are not rushed and will be less likely to forget important items to take care of.

I urge you to take time today to create your holiday lists and to take time out to be grateful for the opportunity to spend time with family and friends this holiday season.

Take care,
Lady Sweet Chip
