- Pomegranates are super messy to seed. Blood goes everywhere! Thanks to a quick google search, we found this video tutorial. Pure genius. Seeding it under water solves the problem.
- Brining the turkey is a must. It makes the turkey so moist and juicy. And it is a super easy process. I know Williams-Sonoma sells a brine spice mix, but this recipe from Pioneer Woman is cheap and easy.
- Add extra time for the turkey to cook! Nobody wants to wait around for the turkey to finish...and starting dinner late makes me super anxious.
- Start thinking about the centerpiece earlier. By the time I really got serious about it, it was too late to do some of the really cool ideas I saw on Pinterest. I ended up using an idea from Martha Stewart. I like the way it turned out, but given more time I could have perfected it.
