[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank god I am not from one of those stingy food cultures where I feel territorial over leftover food going to the two old people who raised my husband. [/quote] I think the issue is OP is hosting her ILs in her home- not just for Thanksgiving dinner. After all that work, she wants to put the leftovers out for everyone (including ILs) to eat during the visit. Nobody wants to cook a meal - especially for houseguests- the day after Thanksgiving.[/quote] Then get takeout. You can even ask the ILs to pay. Give them a nice big doggie bag and ask them to order the takeout the next day. Make a tradition that actually works instead of Leftover Wars[/quote] I don't see how asking the ILs to pay for takeout the next day moves the ball forward. It's crazy to box up leftovers to take home when you're a houseguest staying for days after the meal. [/quote]
