[quote=Anonymous]OP, could you maybe bring an appetizer like cheese and crackers?  I understand not wanting to bring dessert if that is someone else's territory.  I am the pie maker in our family (its sort of my "thing" that I took over after my aunt died and I take great pride in continuing her tradition).  I make two different pies and even still, people always bring or make another dessert and we end up with 5 desserts.  And I end up taking half of each pie back home with me.  Annoying, so I appreciate that you are being considerate of that!

And I also understand not wanting to bring a main dish if it will just go to waste.

Maybe you could bring muffins for breakfast the following morning so that your MIL has something easy to serve for breakfast after working so hard the day before.  And if she throws them away the next day, so be it.....at least you tried to contribute something thoughtful.

Sounds like your MIL and SIL have deeper issues that I think your husband needs to address.  I can understand why you are insulted but I think its something more than just not liking your cooking.[/quote]
