Who doesn't dream of a more relaxed, less frantic Christmas season? Everyone wants to avoid last-minute preparations, a sense of rush and flurried planning. For all of the holiday-challenged, there is a better way. Good Housekeeping Christmas Joys offers not only delicious recipes and beautiful decorating and craft ideas but also strategies for a relaxing holiday -- with time to enjoy the season. There are presentation ideas to make a home especially inviting: a spice tree, an acorn wreath, cinnamon candles, hand-painted angels. And the recipes are mouthwatering: smoked salmon boats, Christmas quesadillas, the perfect roast turkey, and, of course, lots of Christmas cookie recipes.
Along with great recipes and decorations that will make any home look great for the holidays, Good Housekeeping Christmas Joys includes practical tips for holiday safety -- caring for the Christmas tree, safe ways to use candles in the home, and how to check electrical outlets.
Christmas should be a joy -- and with this book, it will be!
