Review & Description
Do you suffer from a severe case of the "Yuletide Yikes"? Well, help is here! In Untangling Christmas, Karen and LeAnn share simple strategies and doable ideas for untangling the mess that is sometimes Christmas. Even though Norman Rockwell-type scenes may dance through our minds at this time of year, we know that for many of us, Christmas is a stressful, less-than-relaxing, and sometimes even family-feuding time of year. So, let's ditch the perfect images. Get rid of the unrealistic expectations, untangle Christmas and, instead, craft ourselves a memorable, though not perfect, holiday. A holiday where we can focus on what matters most!
This practical go-to guide will empower you to:
- Evaluate your current seasonal strategies (or lack there-of!) and identify re-occurring holiday hassles.
- Set up a simple Christmas Planner designed to enable you to be on top of the holidays, rather than the other way around!
- Acquire fast and frugal decorating tips and creative, but simple, gift-giving ideas.
- Whip up delicious holiday foods - both the "from scratch" sort dear Grandma would have made and other simple, short-cut recipes for when time is tight.
Chapters include:
- Have Yourself a Stress-Free Little Christmas: Whoa, Nellie! Back Up the Sleigh; re-evaluating your current Christmas habits
- To Face Unafraid the Plans that We've Made: Finding your plan of attack; taking a close look at the demands of the season; how to decide, defer and NOT feel guilty.
- Seeking the Savior (and an Occasional Silent Night): Focusing on Jesus in the midst of the flurry; carving out time for quiet and for yourself and your family.
- Santa, Can You Spare and Elf or Two?: Gift shopping, making, wrapping and presentation.
- Deck the Halls, Trim the Tree: Cleaning and de-cluttering, storage solutions, decorating and crafty stuff.
- Simple Shortcuts to Festive Food: Make-ahead menus, company dishes, party planning and hosting, holiday baking ideas and some kid-friendly recipes.
- Beyond Aunt Frieda's Fruitcake: Forging Family traditions, new and old; and ideas for outreach.
- A Christmas Potpourri: Helpful links, resources, printable templates and complete recipes for every dish.Do you suffer from a severe case of the "Yuletide Yikes"? Well, help is here!
