Peppermint Bark is a Christmas flavor, not Thanksgiving flavor. How could she ruin a Thanksgiving meal by suggesting food more suitable for Christmas? Marney really should know better than to have Christmas food at a Thanksgiving feast.

She probably considers the end of Thanksgiving dinner the official start of Christmas. She's probably whipping bowls out of people's hands as they finish ice cream, and shoving Christmas instructions at them. "Let's decorate the tree tonight while you are all here to help me for once!"

Marney disappoints me. I would expect her to let Thanksgiving be Thanksgiving and start the Christmas brou-ha-ha on Black Friday.

don't you get the sense that Marbey is the type to get shit done?

Marney, I'm going to hire you to run my funeral.

Pretty funny. My late Grandma-in-law used to loudly comment on the food everyone prepared, critically, right in front of them. But in an observational, good natured sort of way. "My Sheila does always favor a heavy hand with the salt!" Hee! Miss that.

It's hilarious that she remembers the big blue serving dish. That damn dish has been bothering her for a freaking year.

Yeah, they probably had the nerve to bring a danged soup spoon as there serving spoon too. Total train wreck of a dish. And that was set on **Marcy's** good tablecloth.

Right? I mean, it held food, right? Why was it so offensive?

Clearly it was not the serving dish that Marcy had in mind for her table. But when you do things pot luck style you are going to wind up with a mish mash of serving dishes. That's the way it goes. Unacceptable but unavoidable unless.....

If Marcy had been thinking ahead she could have given them each a regulation sized casserole with lid for Christmas. Maybe stuffed a proper serving spoon into their stocking and taped an acceptable recipe into their Christmas card. Heck she could have just sent this year's Christmas gifts early and told them to open them one week before Thanksgiving. That way they would all have the proper matching serving ware and recipes to use.

Please, dear--it's Marney not Marcy.

You may not be invited to her Thanksgiving dinner this year after that.

^^^ Great idea about the casserole dish as Christmas gift!

I do wish I had more casserole dishes with lids, though. They are pretty handy.

Marney is an actress named Jackie Harris. The video is a joke.

Kind of. But only on her exact terms, so even if she's the only one who wants it that way, that's how it will be. Marney thinks no one else will step up up, but the only reason no one steps up is because she never cooperates and sniffs that it wasn't done right. So Marney gets her way.

But the letter is real?

Yes. Everything you read on the Internet is real. Especially on Awkward Family Photos.
