One of my favorite organizing tips for Thanksgiving includes labels of course! When your preparing for your Thanksgiving feast or any large meal it is a good idea to take out all of your serving platters ahead of time and take inventory. Clean them up if they have been sitting around for a while then label each platter with the dish you plan on using it for. This will save you from searching for a platter at the last minute or even worse realizing you ran out just when you need it most.

I too, do this, and my hubby and mom both think I’m insane! My mom will pull all of the platters/trays out and say “Why can’t you just remember?” When the fact is she can’t remember either! LOL Hubby just isn’t big on presentation.
Tanna, I thank you for evidence, once again, that I am not all that insane!

LOL, Ah yes so glad that I can be a constant reminder that you are not as weird as your family thinks you are! ;) We are so misunderstood.
I think this is a brilliant idea! I’m going to try it. I always run out of bowls for veggies or I’m looking for a platter.
