You have just made a scrumptious Thanksgiving dinner and the guests have just devoured the last slice of pie. The last thing on your mind is cleaning up, right? Tackle the post-dinner clean-up with this speedy strategy.
First, ask for help! Enlist your guests to collect their plates, cups and utensils to the sink. Load the dishwasher and hand wash any extra dishes right away to avoid caked-on food later.
Next, pack up leftovers as guests portion them out. This prevents scrambling later to store twenty Tupperware containers. While storing food, wipe down countertops and the stove to remove any splatters.
Finally, gather trash, wipe down tables, sweep up fallen debris, and give floors a quick vacuum or light mopping. Setting an egg timer helps motivate the troop!
Follow these steps and you’ll complete the holiday cleaning sprint under the half-hour mark. Then truly relax knowing your home is guest-ready again so soon.
