This weekend is all about taking care of your last-minute holiday errands!

1. Last-minute holiday gifts

It seems like it happens every December.

No matter how organized you are, how many lists you make or how early you get started on your shopping, there’s always one person you end up having nothing for.

Thankfully, St. Mary’s Nursery and Garden Centre has something for everyone and at all price points.

2. Holiday appetizers

Most of us will find ourselves invited to some sort of holiday gathering, or maybe we’re going to be hosting our own shindig over the next several days.

These parties always revolve around the food.

Well, there’s no need to stress! We had Sue from Zest Cooking Solutions swing by the Global News studios with some easy-to-make appies that will wow the crowd.

The vegan “crab” cups, two different types of palmiers and avocado deviled eggs were delicious!

3. Ugly holiday attire

With the stress and anxiety that can come along with the holiday season, it’s important to remember to have fun.
