[quote=Anonymous]OMG. If you exchange vegan for "whatever random diet/chain mail rant about cancer giving food kick she is on this time" you have described my situation to a tee.

I understand your frustration but I would try my best to accommodate her. It's never perfect in our case and there is always some passive aggressive back and forth, but the effort on our part is important for continued relationship building. Esepcilly now that we see her so often (every 2-3 months just like you!) with the little one. When I met DH I was vegetarian and although I was low-key about it and never wanted to 'put people out' his family (and so many others) always made veggie-friendly meals for me. I try to remember how much I appreciated that and muster up my sense of adventure to try some new recipes.

When I was post partum on one of her trips she came for a week she was only eating raw.... be grateful your MIL is just vegan and it's the same each time. At least there are a lot of resources on the web for cooking vegan with great ideas. [/quote]
