Urgent! Holiday Dinner Survival Guide!

Categories: Advice

"Holiday gatherings are upon us," says publicist/personality Susan Blond in her latest advice video.

"And if you follow these Blond Tips tips, you'll make sure your get-together isn't a big fat turkey."

And on comes the advice:

Dress nicely. Take out your nose ring. Hug your relatives no matter what hateful thing they say.

Feel free to go in the kitchen if you're allowed.

And make sure to tell your host how unbelievably delicious everything is.

That's where I come in!

I ad-libbed the immortal compliment line, which you can see at 1:15.

But please watch the whole thing.

It will take the "daze" out of your holidays and the stuffiness out of your stuffing.

I haven't always been a fan, but this video is very nice and the advice is much needed. And I like at the end how she's holding the door ' OK, party's over, get outta here, ya mutts.'
