Thanksgiving Tips & Tricks >Day After Party

Tasty Idea!

Everyone knows that the best part of Thanksgiving is really the turkey sandwiches! So if those last few slices of pumpkin pie are calling to you from the refrigerator, why not gather frazzled friends together the day after Thanksgiving for a relaxing leftovers potluck lunch or dinner party!

A Friendly Feast!

Invite tired guests to come dressed for comfort! Send invites that let them know they can sleep in - and come by later for scrumptious seconds! Encourage sweats and jeans - even that favorite pair of PJs! Insist that guests do NOT cook! Ask each one to bring a favorite leftover from the big Turkey Day - making sure that there's enough for everyone to at least have a taste! Fill festive serving dishes with each delicious donation and enjoy! Be sure to provide the best leftover of 'em all - the turkey! Have rolls or sandwich bread on hand for turkey sandwiches - and chips and pickles for extra "trimmings"! Either set a table or eat picnic-style in front of the TV! Rent movies or just tune into the TV movie marathons that play all holiday weekend long! Create a movie marathon of your own! Ask each guest to bring along his or her favorite holiday movie - or even their favorite movies of all time - and let the couch potato parade begin! Thank each guest for spending a lazy day with you by filling festive holiday mugs with all the mixin's for a delicious cup of hot cocoa or other warm treat for their next couch potato day!
