Thanksgiving…what could go wrong?

Hosting Thanksgiving…what could possibly go wrong?

A lot according to Yahoo News!

Almost 70% of people say that hosting Turkey Day NEVER goes exactly like it’s planned and the average person has six things go wrong (and that means more for some!

That includes:

  • Not all of the cooking is done on time
  • Running out of wine
  • Spilling something on the floor
  • Forgetting a key ingredient in one dish
  • At least one thing is cold by the time it’s served
  • Running out of something before everyone gets some of it
  • Cooking something wrong
  • Forgetting someone’s food allergy or dietary restriction
  • The turkey is burnt
  • The turkey is dry 

In fact, Instacart found that one in six people regret hosting Thanksgiving, even though they get to choose the menu options!

Maybe this is the year to eat out?
