How to Host the Ultimate Friendsgiving Feast

Nov 01, 2017

Can Friendsgiving please become an official holiday already? Because it’s kind of the best. Not only does it give you an excuse to eat double the stuffing and turkey you normally would, but you also get to spend a cozy afternoon sipping spiced wines and ciders with your best pals. On top of that, it’s easier to host than the traditional Thanksgiving where you have to deal with a micromanaging aunt and your passive-aggressive sister-in-law. (Collar tug.) We’ve come up with some solid tips to help you host the best Friendsgiving dinner ever, and with total ease.

Make it a potluck

Friendsgiving should involve friendsbringing. Make your event a potluck so everyone pitches in. Whether by casserole dish or portable slow cooker, sides are easy to transport. Take care of a pre-dinner mingle cheese plate, the main, gravy, and a side, and let your pals bring the rest. You can even specifically ask people to bring a bottle of wine.

Keep it intimate

As much as you want to introduce your hilarious co-worker to your BFF, and your single cousin to your charming new pal, chill out with the invites. The idea of hosting a huge get-together seems fab at first, but you’ll thank yourself in the end for keeping your guest list short and sweet. Just think: less food to prepare, less dishes to clean-up, and more time for good conversation and catching up with your faves. After all, you don’t want to be bustling between the dining room and the kitchen all night — you deserve some lax time too!

inventory + timeline

Thinking ahead is imperative, so get your planner out. You need a headcount in advance so you can make sure you have enough plates, silverware, and, most importantly, food and drinks. Then take a look at what you’re dishing up and note how much time each item will take to prepare and cook. Create a timeline for the day so that you can stay on top of things, be organized, and avoid the nightmare of forgetting something because you were in a tizzy. (It happens to the best of us.) Additionally, make a list of food your guests are bringing in case you need to fill in any blanks — you don’t want to end up with all carbs and no veggies. (Or do you?) Finally, double check with your guests for any food allergies or dietary restrictions and make sure that your menu has something for everyone.

Set a cozy, casual tone

Going overboard with kitschy decorating or getting overly fancy for a simple dinner party isn’t a great idea, especially when you’re hosting. Casual and cozy is what you should be aiming for so people can feel relaxed and at ease as they sip toasty drinks with their feet curled up on the couch. If you’ve got a fireplace, fire it up. A slow cooker filled with mulled wine is also a great idea — not only does it offer your guests a warming drink, but it’s also aromatic so you don’t have to light any headache-inducing scented candles.

Take advice from the experts

Loads of people in this world are natural-born hosting mavens, and some of them have been kind enough to write books about it in order to lend us their expertise; we should be taking *full* advantage of this. Alexandra Shytsman is one of those experts and, in her 100+ page book titled Friendsgiving, she outlines *everything* you need in order to be the host with the most. We’re not just talking recipes here — we’re talking meal-prep timelines, cheese board essentials, useful tools to have on hand, a music playlist, and even a universal conversion chart for easy measuring.

These Are The Fast Food Joints That’ll Be Open On Christmas This Year

This year, we’re honoring the fact that Christmas looks a little bit different for everyone. Whether you have an entire feast planned, or are just happy to fly solo for the holiday, there’s always a chance that you may need an easy snack or meal to tie you over between the chaos – plus, missing out on your daily Starbucks fix due to store closures is just no fun!

That’s where fast food places can come in real handy. But what restaurants are even open on Christmas this year? Turns out, some of our absolute favorites will be closed. When you're not celebrating with the fam and just need your drive-thru order, we've got you covered.

Ahead, a comprehensive list of fast food holiday hours that’ll help you navigate your last-minute holiday mealtimes – or in some cases, the main course!

Luke Wasn’t The Best Stepfather For Rory — Max Was

If you love Gilmore Girls, then there's a very good chance you really love Luke Danes. Not only is he handsome, but his snarky realism is the perfect balance for Lorelai's chaotic, emotional idealism. But even though Luke is Lorelai's perfect match, one Reddit user thinks that there's another GG character who would make the ultimate stepdad for Rory: Max Medina.

  • While Luke was the perfect match for Lorelai, fans think Max would have been a better stepdad for Rory.
  • Max was honest and a great communicator.
  • He also would have helped Rory during that Gilmore Girls season 5 spiral.

Do Lorelai and Max get married on Gilmore Girls?

Warner Bros. TV

Lorelai and Max are engaged during Gilmore Girls season 1, but Lorelai ends up calling off the wedding. But while we're over the moon when Lorelai and Luke finally get together, some GG fans wish Max had stayed in Rory's life.

"I’m just going go say it — if Lorelai had ended up with Max, Rory would have been a much more successful adult," Reddit user @StregaCagna says. While Max wasn't Lorelai's perfect match, his particular mix of honesty and kindness would have been so good for Rory. "Those traits, combined with his background as an English teacher, would have meant he absolutely would have been straight with Rory on so many things. Like, can you just imagine how he would have reacted to Jess? Logan? Her dropping out of Yale? Her floating around in her 30s?"

Honestly, if the Gilmores (Richard and Emily included) didn't tiptoe around so many issues, and felt comfortable being vulnerable and honest with each other about the hard stuff, I think a lot of the characters' problems would have been solved. And Max's ability to tell the truth in love would have been a breath of fresh air! He wouldn't have let Rory get away with anything (remember how he doesn't let her take the Shakespeare test when she's late to school?), but that also means she'd develop an insane sense of trust with him.

Neil Jacobs/Netflix

"I think she would have written her book when she did, but instead of being the Editor of the Stars Hollow Gazette, she would have been, like, the most popular English professor at Wesleyan who had a strong professional network and also wrote for The Atlantic and The New Yorker," @StregaCagna continues.

Of course, there's absolutely nothing wrong with small town papers — I love my small town paper! The root of Rory's issue is that she just completely stopped chasing her dreams, which seems to lead her to an unhappy adulthood. She's dating Paul (whom she can never remember), she's having an affair with Logan (who's engaged to someone else, ick), and she's become the kind of journalist who falls asleep on the job and doesn't have pitches prepared. I can't help but wonder if some structure during her teenage years would have set her up on a different path.

"I will never forget the scene where she’s interviewing [Max] and says she really wanted him to be her step father," user @StruggleDesigner8307 says. "She wanted that father figure and Max was so great."

Warner Bros. TV

I do think Rory's friendship with Paris (one of the greatest TV choices of all time) gives her some of that structure and drive, but it doesn't really balance out the way that Richard, Emily, and even Lorelai spoil her. And when you're not used to loving constructive criticism, unloving criticism hurts all the worse. Yes, I'm talking about Mitchum Huntzberger.

"I’ll always be sad that Rory lost out on yet another great father figure when she was saddled with Chris," user @wrenhawkeye says of Max's exit from the show. "A lot of people don’t understand that her spiral to Mitchum’s words wasn’t just because Rory’s 'weak' or whatever misogynistic BS. It’s because Rory has real problems with male validation since her father abandoned her. It also doesn’t hurt that Mitchum was a titan in his field."

GG fans know about THAT Gilmore Girls season 5 arc like the back of their hand, but this whole discussion is giving me more compassion for Rory than I've felt before. Because to be 20 and to hear you're supposedly not good enough for your life's one dream is hard — and to spiral to that degree after a man who has no stake in your life criticizes you just proves Rory put her entire identity into being a journalist. But you know who would have given Rory encouragement while reminding her she's more than just a writer? Max.

Warner Bros. TV

I can totally see a Gilmore Girls where Max stayed in Rory's life and offered her guidance on basically everything: boys, college applications, her career aspirations, and even drama with Paris. And I'm not the only one.

"I think they would have stayed in touch past high-school and college," @synalgo_12 says, "and he would be one of the people she'd thank in her work or would be part of her list of mentors or 'influenced by' had she ever gotten her own Wikipedia page or biography."

Somebody call Amy Sherman-Palladino because this is the Gilmore Girls spinoff we need!

​Why did Max Medina leave?

Warner Bros. TV

Max ends up leaving Gilmore Girls after Lorelai calls off their wedding. While he sticks around through seasons 2 and 3, and still has an insane amount of chemistry with Lorelai, the last time we see him is in season 3 episode 19 (coincidentally, right before Rory's life really goes off the rails in my opinion).

While we're talking about THAT GG season 5 arc, read why This Gilmore Girls Season 1 Moment Proves Rory Really DIDN'T Have What It Takes To Be A Journalist.

Earthy Neutrals Are The Secret To Creating A Cozy Home

If neutrals aren’t your thing — or you’re ready to refresh your space — earthy accents are the perfect way to bring warmth and character into your home. Colors like chocolate and caramel, earthy greens, Bordeaux, and burgundy are making our neutral rooms a little richer and less monotone. Here’s how to create a modern earthy-neutral aesthetic that feels fresh, grounded, and cozy for a new season.

How To Create An Earthy-Neutral Aesthetic

Design: Allprace | Photography by Michael P.H. Clifford

  1. Layer textures: Mix natural materials like woven jute, natural fiber linens, and rustic ceramics to create a cozy, layered look. The more textures, the richer the effect!
  2. Choose warm neutrals: Instead of stark whites or cool grays, go for warm tones like sandy beige, terracotta, and clay that give you an organic, lived-in feel.
  3. Add greenery: Everything is better with plants. Bring in indoor trees, succulents, and hanging plants to accentuate that earthy vibe.
  4. Mix in wood and stone: These materials instantly ground a space. Think raw wood furniture or stone accents to capture an earthy, timeless vibe.
  5. Use earth-toned accents: From throw pillows to wall art, shop for decor in muted browns, greens, and rusty reds that echo the colors of nature.
