Martha Stewart is all about the holidays!

The caption adds that the cookbook author’s Christmas holidays as a child included fun photos and “were always a day filled with a range of activities, from baking and cooking to decorating and gift-giving”. She also invited fans to check out the rest of Stewart’s “favorite Christmas traditions” via a post on her website.
Speaking about family earlier this month, Stewart opened up to PEOPLE about hosting her granddaughter and five friends over a recent weekend.
“I cooked them the best gourmet meals I could conjure up. I was going to give them an apple pie lesson, but we ran out of time,” she said.

Martha Stewart went all out hosting her granddaughter’s tween friends: ‘I cooked them the best gourmet meals’
Stewart was just as busy over Thanksgiving, as she revealed in an Instagram post that she baked 30 pies over two days.
“Finally finished a 2 day pie marathon!!! Baked about thirty Lemon curd, pecan, chocolate pecan, pumpkin and cranberry pies. I haven’t tried any of them yet, but I’ll report back on the taste and texture and appearance tomorrow,” her caption read.
In addition to having fun, it is equally important for the multi-hyphenate to be a good guest.
“If I’m traveling, I fold my towels and leave them in a neat little pile. I wipe down the sink. I don’t leave trash anywhere. I leave the hangers hanging in the closet. I hang the robe back up if I’ve used it, on the hook,” she told PEOPLE in October. “I just can’t stand it when people leave a terrible mess in the room. It’s the worst.”
During a recent appearance on The Drew Barrymore ShowStewart revealed her secret to dealing with guests who overstay their welcome.
“Honestly, I just say, ‘I’m going to bed, see you.’ I’m just saying that,” she said, revealing how she dealt with that problem on one particular occasion.

“One night I had the firemen show up. Nobody wanted to leave, we just pulled the fire alarm,” she explained before admitting: “Not really, we had a furnace breakdown and the whole fire department showed up and the fire chief came in and told everyone to go outside. It was like zero outside and he made everyone go outside without their phones. That’s one way to get rid of them.”
