After a week of planning, cooking, hosting and roasting, be sure to take some time for yourself. Once the bird is in the oven and the table is set, take a minute to reflect, appreciate and love. When trying to achieve perfection of this solitary meal, remind yourself that we live in an imperfect world, and it’s the imperfections that shape everyone and everything. This holiday season, find the beauty and simplicity in imperfections.
