I have no desire to spend my entire vacation wiping crumbs off the couches and shining fingerprints out of the stainless steel appliances. If you really must load up on powdered donuts and potato chips - Go.Out. |
You are very proud of your stainless steel appliances, aren't you? |
Tell us why you even have people over, if you are that controlling? Just stop hosting. Live alone in your immaculate stainless steel castle. Myself, I'm cool with some crumbs and fingerprints in exchange for love and laughter. |
You mean, if you need to eat a meal! These people are only serving one or two meals a day. That ain't right. If 4 meals is good enough for the sainted French, you better be serving 4 meals when I come visit. Breakfast, lunch, gouter and dinner! |
Why bother hosting? |
Add in Elevenses and kaffee und kuchen and that's how I host! But everyone loves coming here. |
Oh good grief. I make nice holiday meals. I decorate a lovely home. I have baths and guest rooms well stocked. But I do not enjoy serving a nice brunch and then being asked what's for lunch. If you must have a gas station chili cheese dog - go to the gas station and get one. Do not bring that into my clean house. |
You sound like the life of the party. |
|
You must be a joy to be around. |
I love second breakfast! We have it frequently in my house! |
Do you mind sharing how old you are? |
You go first. How old are you? |
Age aside, I have always hosted this way, pp. I go all out with decorations, plan/cook/serve beautiful meals and I simply do not enjoy tidying up after snackers and grazers.
It sounds as though I'm not the only host who feels this way, It's not an age thing. It's personal preference. |
I was starving in Suffolk and 34 years old. |
