You also know that washing dishes and cleaning kitchen countertops after the meal can be exhausting, especially when you\u2019re filled to the brim with turkey and dressing.<br \/>\nBut there\u2019s no reason you shouldn\u2019t be able to bake your pies and enjoy them with family, too. The following Thanksgiving tips would help you to enjoy the dinner.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.cypruscu.com\/hs-fs\/hubfs\/Thanksgiving%20B-jpg-1.jpeg?width=408&amp;height=240&amp;name=Thanksgiving%20B-jpg-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Thanksgiving Prep Tips\" width=\"544\" height=\"320\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>1. Make a plan.<\/h3>\n<p>Create an hourly cooking and cleaning\u00a0to-do list. If you\u2019re prepping pies two days before your dinner, your list should kick off at that time. It\u2019ll come in handy the day before your gathering and on Thanksgiving Day itself, as you\u2019ll always have an idea of what should be going in or out of the oven when. Make notes on the sides of your list to indicate good times for loading the dishwasher or cleaning kitchen countertops. That way, you can spend much-needed time washing dishes or preparing green bean casserole instead of wildly looking around the kitchen and asking, \u201cWhat do I need to do now?\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>2. Wipe down spills immediately.<\/h3>\n<p>The longer spilled gravy or cranberries sit, the more difficult they\u2019ll be to chisel off the counter later. That\u2019s why cleaning kitchen countertops and cooktops as you work is a crucial part of cutting down post-dinner housekeeping. Stock your kitchen with extra dish towels and wipe down spills and splatters as they happen. Cleaning kitchen countertops during meal preparation not only means less mess later, but it can also prevent cross-contamination. The last thing you want is to send a dinner guest home with food poisoning.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Clean dishes in between meal preparation.<\/h3>\n<p>Unless you have an industrial-sized kitchen and a staff of sous-chefs, there\u2019s no way every pie, casserole, and side will be ready at the same time. That means you\u2019re constantly going to be preparing and cooking food. After you chop up ingredients and get them working on the stove or in the oven, take some time to load the dishwasher or, if the dishwasher\u2019s full, wash\u00a0dishes by hand. Washing dishes and loading the dishwasher as you go means you won\u2019t have to take up precious counter space with mounds of dirty cookware. It also means there\u2019s less to do once the meal wraps up.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Slow down.<\/h3>\n<p>It can be stressful trying to time a meal and keep your kitchen from looking like it recently hosted a food fight. However, when you start rushing, you\u2019re more likely to have major disasters occur, such as spills, broken dishes, and even burns. Though you may always have that relative who keeps asking if dinner is ready, most of your family will be too busy enjoying each other to notice the meal isn\u2019t exactly on schedule. And, hopefully, you\u2019ll always have a guest or two who offers to help with washing dishes or general cleaning up. (Accept these gracious offers when they come.) Take your time and you\u2019ll be less likely to make measuring mistakes and messes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lombardo-homes-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/06011852\/thanksgiving-home-cleaning-tips-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"8 Home Cleaning Tips for Thanksgiving - Lombardo Homes\" width=\"652\" height=\"431\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember if you want to get your house Sparkling Cleaned without moving a finger, don\u2019t hesitate and call <a href=\"https:\/\/bookcleany.com\/\">Cleany!\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To purchase the best Cleaning products recommended by professionals, go to our Cleany Store!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shopcleany.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.shopcleany.com\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019ve ever prepared Thanksgiving dinner, you know that a lot of work goes into pulling off the meal smoothly.
