[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] If I'm not putting out snacks at 5 to signal "cocktail hour," they are both asking for food because they're "peckish," but of course the focus is on the drink. Now that I am Preggo and have a toddler, and I'm making dinner, it's just enough already. Just pour yourself a freaking drink.[/quote] Turn it over to them. Come home with a grocery bag and show them: "I got some Marcona almonds to go with your drinks tonight, and I'm going to put the limes in the left-hand crisper. Do you know where everything else is? Between Larla and the baby-to-be, 5 o'clock keeps showing up unannounced, so I thought you might rather handle happy hour on your own."[/quote] I suspect it's just annoying that the pretense is being hungry when all they really want is the drink. Just be honest and say you want a drink.[/quote]
