after what is usually a stressful time before Christmas

Non-PRO English to French Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
Everyone likes to serve something special at Christmas. For many families, the communal meal is the culmination of the Christmas holiday and it should therefore be a veritable culinary delight. Surprise your loved ones with a sophisticated and yet quickly prepared main course.

A Diversity of Chicken for Christmas
Poultry is versatile, delicious and low on calories. Roast duck or goose are often part of the holiday tradition. However, $after what is usually a stressful time before Christmas$, it is also possible to create a delicious, yet light meal with less time and effort.

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): Claire Cox, Stéphanie Soudais

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Does anyone think that a phrase using "à l'issue de..." might be nice here?
