[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bring your muffins, bring your wine. Try to stay out of the way in the kitchen unless asked. Don’t make her feel like you’re trying to muscle in and take over. If she says sit back and relax, believe her. If she asks you to peel potatoes, peel potatoes. [b]Clean up after yourself.[/b] Don’t criticize. Find small things to compliment. You’ll be invited again and again. [/quote] Only don’t do it like my MIL, whose idea of cleaning up after herself involves rinsing dishes and leaving food scraps all over one side of the sink, and leaving the dishes on the other side, two feet from the dishwasher. Notice if the household scrapes into the garbage or uses a disposal, and do that. Rinse out the sink, too![/quote]
