[quote=Anonymous]PP again who said to bring a dish to share and often host.

When we prepare/buy dishes, I don't always make enough of the same dish for everyone. The reason is because not everyone likes the same dish/dessert. I don't have enough of the same wine for everyone, the same beer, or enough fruit tart.

If I am hosting 20 people, I will have enough of the main dish for everyone but not necessarily enough of each side for all 20 people. 95% of our guests bring something to share. We always have a ton of leftovers. There is always an appetizer or dessert that is widely popular. I will then get more of it for the next party and of course only have gets eaten and then another dish becomes the popular dish that runs out.

I just find it odd that you and the other guests don't bring something to share, especially if it is known that MIL doesn't make enough food. Your fudge example proves that point. Why not bring a cheesecake and another person bring a fruit tart? Then everyone will be able to have dessert.

Sorry, I am not on your side. Your MIL also sounds like she sucks. I wouldn't want to attend this party with the host or guests.[/quote]
