Real Simple – November 2019

AT A FAMILY GATHERING, I came across a photo of my late grandfather in his Marines uniform and recalled stories my mom told about all the countries he served in during World War II. Then I thought about all the family dinners we’d shared over the years and how I’d never managed to ask him about any of it. At another gathering, I looked at the teenagers around the table, who weren’t saying much, and wondered how I could learn more about their lives. Even with people you know well, it can be hard to find that conversational spark that leads to new insights. This year, I’ve vowed to skip the same old questions about school and work and use a tip from our article on coaxing stories out of people (page 82): Ask them how something works. After all, everybody likes to share their expertise, whether it’s making pavlova or setting up a sound bar. Because while Real Simple magazine again brings you useful strategies and recipes, we also focus on the most important part of the holidays: people. This month, you’ll get readers’ tips for the happiest family gatherings (page 16) and learn how to feel at ease in any social situation (page 67). If these are things you’ve already mastered, congratulations! Move on to the recipes, and do not miss the secret to delicious mashed potatoes (page 108).
However you celebrate, we hope it’s enjoyable and memorable. – Editor ’s Note
