[quote=Anonymous]This is a UMC boomer thing. Don’t you remember the fully stocked wet bars in late 1970s and 1980s houses and remodels or the dark wood clubby bars in country clubs? Cocktails were a thing. They aren’t necessarily alcoholics but they are doing the boomers behaving badly thing. They are oblivious that times have changed and are chastising and passive aggressively trying to get you to conform to their expectations. They want you to be the happy hostess announcing cocktail hour, serving them the drinks and a tray of light snacks. Your husband should join in and after everyone is served you can partake as well. By telling them to help themselves, you’ve destroyed their expectations of cocktail hour. Cocktail hour is not self serve if there is a woman to serve them! Cocktail hour isn’t something they would do on their own, it’s about being entertained by their host and hostess. Just ignore their comments and keep saying help yourself. [/quote]
