Welcome November! The season for family and friends entertainment. Are you ready to host like a pro? Whether you're expecting in-laws,out town family members or friendsgiving, I put together a few tips that will make it easier to get your house and yourself ready to welcome guests warmly and plan a memorable time that everyone, including you, will enjoy. 😊

🍂Tidy Up the Kitchen
Much more than just a food prep space, today's kitchens are the hubs of home life and inevitably accumulate a lot of everyday clutter from kids' backpacks to unopened mail and prescription bottles.
First, clear the clutter and give the countertops and backsplash a good wipe down. Then, brighten things up with vases of fresh flowers and displays of colorful fruit. Short on time? Simply piling oranges or apples into a low bowl or basket will create a pretty display that also puts a healthy snack in easy reach.

🍂 Offer Refreshments on Arrival
Travel is hungry and thirsty work. Ensure guests don't have to forage for food and drinks the minute they arrive by setting out a small spread with drinks (alcoholic or non) and light snacks.

🍂 Keep Guests Satisfied Until Dinner
For midday munchies, offer a crudité and fruit platter and a couple of warm chip-and-dip combos to keep everyone satisfied until dinner. Also, be sure to have an ample supply of bottled water on hand so guests can quench their thirst on the go.

🍂 Tackle Pre-Visit Meal Prep
To minimize your time in the kitchen once company arrives, prep ingredients in advance so easy meals and appetizers can be thrown together quickly.

🍂 Whether you're eager to show off your culinary skills or feel more comfortable heating up pre-made items from your favorite chef (Me)😁, enjoying your meal together at a beautifully set table will make this dinner feel like a special occasion.

🍂 Document Fun Times
Taking photos has never been easier. A handy cellphone is all you need to capture fun times together. Either post the pics to social sites — with consent! — or text them to your guests as a souvenir of a weekend well spent.

With Thanksgiving around the corner, let's discuss Collard Greens. What's the flavor profile of Collard Greens? Raw Collard Greens display bitterness, although less intense than kale. Heat modifies the flavor, revealing subtle earthy undertones.

While available year-round, Collard Greens are most flavorful during cooler months. Popular cultivars include 'Georgia Southern', 'Vates', 'Morris Heading', 'Blue Max', 'Top Bunch', 'Butter Collard' (couve manteiga), couve tronchuda, and Groninger Blauw. In Africa, they're commonly known as sukuma (East Africa), muriwo or umBhida (Southern Africa). Traditional Southern-style Collard Greens are the most popular variant.

The aroma of cooking Collard Greens fills homes with classic Southern cuisine's inviting scents. Each bite offers comfort, cooked in broth, braised with savory meat, and perfectly spiced. Smoked turkey is a preferred addition. What's your favorite greens? 🥬

Be inspired this holiday to spice up your gathering with those you love. Here are a few ideas to refresh your event and you!

🍂 Brunch. Instead of preparing dinner this year, consider hosting a holiday brunch. Food can be light and easy. Serve mimosas and other brunch cocktails. Have a waffle bar and ask guests to bring their favorite waffle toppings. For menu planning, it’s a great idea to mix dishes that can be prepared ahead of time with a few dishes that you prepare the day of. And don’t forget about the mimosa bar!

🍂 No matter what you do, send an invitation to those who made your “nice” list. Be sure to send out some form of invitation no matter how casual your dinner party may be. Ditch the mass group texts, Facebook invite and GroupMe shoutouts and take the time to create a personalized or themed invitation.

🍂 You may find it easier to do buffet-style to take the pressure of serving off of you. Something to consider when hosting 10 or more people is hiring a caterer or ordering food from your favorite restaurant. You’ll have more time to be present at the party and appreciate time with your guests."

🍂Graze tables are the most popular this year. They can be as lush and dramatic as you like or just small and simple for a small cocktail party. like a buffet, but it’s been designed to make it visually appealing and easy for guests to pick and nibble at food. It’s usually a table, but it can even be a large platter, wooden board, counter or just any large and flat surface. Food items aren’t always contained on plates or bowls, but arranged artfully in piles that spill, overlap and intertwine into each other, so it doesn't just taste delicious, it looks delicious.
