With forty-plus years of hosting experience, I have compiled a comprehensive resource in the Modern Host’s Guide to Thanksgiving e-book. Whether you are hosting for the first time or you’re a seasoned pro, my workbook will be your greatest asset in planning your Thanksgiving gathering.
Available as a downloadable e-book, you can print the workbook and place it in a binder as a handy tool to help you prepare for Thanksgiving starting today!
What’s included:
- My one-month timeline leads you week by week to Thanksgiving Day. If you use my checklist, you will be so organized and amazed at how easy it will be to host your gathering.
- Lists including menu planning, a cooking timeline, and a guest list
- You will need my custom grocery list with every ingredient to prepare the Thanksgiving meal. Just taking it to the grocery store is a huge time saver.
- Four of my cherished family recipes.
- Resources – a Thanksgiving playlist on Spotify, links to engaging games and puzzles, and my Pinterest board filled with tablescape ideas and more.
- Printable Place cards for your table.

Hospitality is in my DNA. I founded Home with a Twist, a daughter’s twist on her mother’s traditions, in memory of my mother to celebrate her life and the gifts she shared with me. Mother loved to celebrate life’s occasions – big and small.
