[quote=Anonymous]This is our first year hosting DH's entire family for Christmas. I was game to cook but DH's family pushed the catering idea. That's fine too. So, I found some good catering options. MIL always does so much. I wanted her to not have to do as much this holiday. So, I'm going back and forth with MIL about the menu and plans. She's insisting on bringing x, y, and z even though it's kinda unnecessary. I finally realized that she wants to bring a lot and she wants to do so much. DH told me to give her assignments as it will make her happier. As a result, I'm scaling back my catering order so she can bring the dishes she wants to bring. And I'm putting her in charge of breakfast casseroles the following morning. She does seem happier about it now. It sounds like OP needs the same thing. [/quote]
