[quote=Anonymous]OP it sounds like you just plain don't like your ILs. Maybe you need to host a family event and then you can do it your way. Now that you know your ILs style you should just eat beforehand, or bring snacks for the kids. You won't change them so it is best to adapt. And like others have posted we typically plan on serving dinner about 1-1.5 hours after guests arrived. The exception is an open house at the holidays in which case we have the food available as soon as guests arrive, including dessert since people can come and go and we don't mandate a dinner hour and a dessert hour. We hire someone to keep the food replenished, although occasionally we will run out of a specific item. But we always make sure we have an excess of at least a couple of things as a backup. [/quote]
