Every year, mid-October through the New Year absolutely flies by between Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, all the holiday parties, holiday travel, planning and prepping for each holiday, gift shopping, decorating, cooking, baking, sending out cards, figuring out what to wear to everything, and trying to make time to sit at home and enjoy the season. All that combined is certainly not simple! Today, I’m sharing five easy ways to simplify now so that you can truly enjoy the next few months!

My favorite way to simplify for the holidays is to make big batches of cookie dough ahead of time and freeze them in individual balls. Last Christmas season I had 8 (8!) work related Christmas parties, and almost all involved bringing a side dish/dessert of some kind. Having cookie dough already made saved SO much time during the month of December when I was already busy, and I could easily have fresh baked cookies in about 10 minutes whenever I needed them. This saves me time, reduces stress, and makes holiday baking enjoyable again – I’m never going back! 🙂
What a fantastic tip! Thanks for listening and sharing, Mandy! XO
