Entertaining
During the holidays, our lifestyle
becomes quite a bit more hectic, and
a lot more festive. There's so much
fun and togetherness to prepare for,
this beteg a season of celebration, a
time when friends and loved ones
join one another in a spirit of joy and
giving.
Entertaining is at its best during
the holiday, from formal Christmas
balls and elegant office parties, to
Christmas Eve tree trimmings and
cozy gatherings by the hearth for hot
cider and gingerbread men.
Many an hour is spent in the kit-
chen as eager hosts and hostesses
is part of the spirit of Christmas
repare some of the season's best-
oved treats for their guests.
Often, preparing for those special
events is reason in itself for s festive
get-together. Friends bake together
in one another's kitchens, sharing
recipes and cookie cutters for their
favorite holiday sweets, while others
gather to make ornaments before a
tree trimming party.

mal office party of hundreds or a
romantic Christmas Eve for two,
this is the time for a bit more
glamour.
A new hairstyle or fragrance could
be just the thing to put you in a
festive mood. You might even try to
diet a bit before this season of merri-
ment begins, so that not only will
you look and feel great in your holi-
day best, but you won't have to
worry too much after the holidays
about the few pounds that we all
tend to gain at this time.
If. you're wondering just how,
through all of the hustle and bustle
of shopping for gifts, taking the kids
to see Santa, spending late nights
wrapping and baking, and planning
your own parties as well as going to
everyone else's, you'll possibly
manage to look your best, the trick
is to pace yourself.
Try to get shopping done ahead of
time and gifts wrapped and ready to
place beneath the tree, as the days
just before Christmas seem to pass
all too quickly.
Fruitcakes and mincemeat pies
may be prepared well in advance, as
they are at their best when begun a
month or .two ahead of time, and the
dough for many of your favorite.
Christmas cookies can be prepared
and then frozen for a few weeks,
thus saving time when you are ready
to bake.
Pace yourself
Another holiday time-saver would
be to have greeting cards written
and ready to go ahead of time so
that, when the holidays approach,
you can just drop them in the mail
and spend your time enjoying family
and friends.
After an especially hectic day, ,
perhaps one where you've been
rushing about cleaning the house and
preparing food for a party of your
own that evening, take time out for
yourself.
Relax in a warm bubble bath,
listen to soft music, and pamper
yourself a little bit so that you'll be
able to totally enjoy the evening's
festivities, because, in this season of
togetherness and merrymaking,
sharing joy is what it's all about.
