Planning Ahead (Even When You Didn’t!)

Sometimes, no matter how early we plan, life happens! Felice admits she’s no stranger to that “how did Thanksgiving get here so fast?!” feeling. Her advice?

Last-Minute Thanksgiving Treats — The Easy Way

If your time is short and guests are many, these ideas will save the day:

🍇 1. Fruit Platters with Fluff

Mix pre-cut fruits and serve with “fruit fluff”:

8 oz cream cheese
1 jar marshmallow cream
Blend until smooth and serve chilled — kids and adults love it!

🧀 2. Salty Pretzel Sandwiches

Layer mini pretzels and cheese slices, bake at 425°F for 10 minutes, and serve hot with mustard. 🥨

🌶️ 3. Pepper Jelly & Cream Cheese Dip
