The Holiday Table: Thanksgiving to New Year’s · Print Edition

Every holiday, planned, set and served beautifully.

The Holiday Table: Thanksgiving to New Year's, Beautifully Planned is a large-format, full-color guide to the busiest weeks of the hosting year. Every celebration comes with the menu, the recipes, a make-ahead timeline, the table, the drink and exactly how much to buy, so the day itself feels calm.

Inside the book:

• Thanksgiving, the whole day, timed: a three-week countdown, Thursday hour by hour, the oven map, the turkey from thaw to carve, make-ahead gravy, stuffing, two pies and the day after.
• Friendsgiving: a 90-minute spatchcocked turkey and a potluck map.
• Christmas, start to finish: Christmas Eve, a Christmas morning made the night before, and Christmas dinner with herb and garlic prime rib.
• The cookie season: twelve cookies, one tin, a two-weekend bake plan and a cookie exchange.
• New Year's Eve and Day, plus Valentine's, Easter, the Fourth of July and a grown-up Halloween supper.
• 54 recipes and 12 signature drinks, each with a zero-proof twin.
• Plan it: how-much charts for 6, 10 and 14 guests, a master countdown and a holiday budget.

At 8.5 x 11 inches and 218 pages, it is made to be used and displayed: full-bleed photographs, generous type and a calm, modern design in midnight, gilt and cranberry.
