[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ILs buy whatever I say I'm bringing. So if I say I'm bringing pumpkin pie, they get a store bought pie and put it next to mine.

For the record, I have sold my baked goods, and they always get rave reviews and my kitchen is clean. Nothing wrong with my pie. [/quote]

My mother used to suggest to my sister when she asked what to bring, to pick up from the store whatever I had stayed up until 2 am to prepare. Then when my sister arrived, my mom would say to me confidentially, let's not put yours out, it will hurt your sister's feelings. [b]How do people get that insane?[/[/b]quote]
I don't know, but my mil does that type of thing, too. This year, she told dw she wasn't doing Thanksgiving because it's too much stress and work. She told her to let all her kids and their spouses bring everything so we could gather and eat and she wouldn't have to work. She decided she'd do the main course and each child had 2-3 foods, drinks or supplies they would bring. We got there and she'd done everything and not well because she was so anxious she took xanax and was flying high. When I reminded her of the plan, she laughed. It was an...interesting meal.[/quote]
