You make the planner. Everyone else adds what they are bringing and one line about what they are thankful for. No app, no sign in, nothing to chase down.
Your private editing link is below and in your email. Open it to add the guests and dishes, then send the family link from inside.
Open my plannerDate, time, who is coming, anything to avoid. Saves as you type.
Each person adds their dish and their thankful line from their phone. No sign in.
Gaps, oven schedule, run sheet, leftovers, and the card. All from what the family typed.
Each one copies a finished prompt with your real details in it. Paste it into Claude or ChatGPT. Free accounts work, and it answers in one go.
What is missing for a full meal, whether the amounts work for your headcount, which dishes fight for the oven, and a friendly text to fill each gap.
Hour by hour from the day before through cleanup, with your helpers' names on the jobs and a 15 minute buffer before dinner.
How to store each dish, a fair split between households, three easy meals, and a 20 minute cleanup everybody can do.
Every thankful line, with the name next to it, on one card. Save it to Photos, drop it in the family thread, or print it as place cards for the table.
What we keep, and for how long. First names, dishes, and the thankful lines, that is all. No addresses, phone numbers, or ages. The planner link is random and hidden from search engines. Everything closes on January 31 and the details are removed.
