Can you bring Tupperware with pudding on plane in purse/carry on?

Not really. It's all from scratch, I whip heavy cream into it, layer it etc.

It's just laughable to me that's she's retired with nothing but time and she doesn't see any issue with asking me to essentially step out of the car after hours of travel and start cooking.

Maybe you could make a less involved "quick" version of it this year (hello jello and Cool Whip)? She may not realize how time consuming your recipe really is?

I agree. I would not be having it. Honestly, if I were you I would just refuse to do it.

And I could never imagine asking my dil to cook something for dinner the day she and my son arrived. It's rude.

Can you offer to make it for the day after tgiving, explaining that you will be tired and a bit harried when you get in?

Make it for her the next day. Say it got confiscated.

I am not getting the part where your husband thinks it is ok for her to ask you to make sonething but not ok for you to send her the recie. You are not asking her to make it. You don't care if she makes it or not.

Just say you're sorry you can't. If your MIL won't make it herself and really wants it, give the recipe to DH so he can make the pudding when you arrive. If he's not willing to do the work then no pudding.

Realistically, traveling with pudding for hours through various temps will make it gross, think about it. It's a dumb request to begin with. You should have immediately laughed it off and then if mil was instant just explain why it's gross and that no one wants to be served a gelatinous goo that has been through 5 hours of travel. Tell her now you aren't bringing it so she can order dessert.

Can I have your pudding recipe??

[Anonymous]

Just say no. You don't have to say yes!

[Anonymous]

Flip side is that maybe it is kind of nice that she likes something you make that much.

Make and check it or make when you get there.

[Anonymous]

Yes..I am dying to see this pudding recipe.

[Anonymous]

I think we all just want some pudding now.

I think that the OP likes complaining about MIL yet has every intention of arriving with Montezuma's revenge since she doesn't want to upset her DH either.

You claim your pudding is too complicated to make upon arriving, but what makes you think it's going to taste good (and look appetizing) after a 3 hr plane ride (assuming you're freezing it, jam it into tupperware, semi cool in ice pak, etc.). Hope it doesn't leak.

If it's more than 6oz you can't carry it on board.

And holiday crowds don't put TSA officials in a good mood so prepare to disgard if you're trying to take it with you.

Can you cut and paste the TSA info provided on a previous page in an email to her with a bunch of emoticon frowns faces and a brief breezy note " no can do on the pudding MIL! We'll stop by Trader Joes and grab a pie, I hear they are delicious "
