Are You a New Mommy? Here Are a Few Tips for Taking the Stress Out of Serving Easter Dinner This Year From Mommy's Time Out

Whether arguing with the in-laws about who is hosting on Easter or planning the perfect menu to impress the picky sister-in-law, serving dinner on Easter can be a thankless job! So the makers of Mommy’s Time Out Wine have a few suggestions for taking the stress out of the holiday.

Prepare The Night Before: Take a few minutes and set the table and prep the basics. Keep it simple!

Less is More and Forget the Dishes: Two years from now, no one will remember how the house or the table were decorated, so there’s no need to spend hours trying to prepare for a magazine cover shoot. The same rule applies to food. There will always be too much, so think about making the favorites but don’t overdo it; there’s just so much food people can eat.

There’s nothing worse than ignoring guests after dinner to face a kitchen cluttered with dirty dishes. Most stores now carry premium plastic and paper dishes, cutlery, etc., as well as disposable roasting pans and serving dishes. Set a stylish table and toss those dishes afterward so cleanup is a breeze and there's time to visit with loved ones.

Give Everyone Something to Do:  The next time someone offers to help or bring a dish, let him or her do it! Give everyone an assignment; chances are, they’ll welcome the opportunity to contribute. 

Remember Mommy's Time Out Wine: Make sure to save a little wine and enjoy a glass after everyone leaves! Take a moment to relive a wonderful day with friends and family and to reward yourself for a job well done. We recommend, of course, Mommy’s Time Out Garganega Pinot Grigio, Moscato or Delicious Pink - all of which go great with roasted turkey or ham!

Mommy’s Time Out features five varieties including Mommy’s Time Out Garganega Pinot Grigio, Mommy’s Time Out Moscato, Mommy’s Time Out Delicious Red, Mommy’s Time Out Delicious Pink and Mommy's Time Out Prosecco. All are made from grapes grown in Italy and have wonderful fruity undertones. All the wines are fresh, fruity and well-balanced, and are delicious for sipping with snacks or to complement a meal.

Mommy’s Time Out comes in 750-mL and 1.5-L sizes. The suggested retail price for the 750-ml is $9.99 per bottle. For the 1.5L (Mommy's Time Out Garganega Pinot Grigio only), the suggested retail price is $18.99 per bottle. Adults over the age of 21 should enjoy Mommy’s Time Out responsibly.

“No matter what stage you’re at when it comes to being a Mommy, it’s one of the toughest and most rewarding jobs there is. That’s why we believe Mommy deserves something special for herself now and then with Mommy’s Time Out Wine,” says Mike Cincotta, president of Selective Wine Estates Inc.
