[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand the closed kitchen. Do they lock the door? The fridge? Do they stand guard? I do not get it![/quote] Imagine you are a guest in someone’s home. You go to the kitchen to get a glass of water: Burger King lady immediately shrieks “What are you doing in there? What do you need? Dinner is at 4:00pm!” It’s very uncomfortable to get food in an environment where every bite you eat is controlled and timed by the hostess. I suppose you could ignore what your MIL says and eat anyways, but most normal people don’t want to antagonize ILs this way. Plus it’s usually clear that this is part of a decline of some sort, so nobody wants to make an issue of it on holidays. Of course, this make visits very difficult. Hence, all the venting when you end up marrying into a family like this. I mean can you imagine Burger King lady forcing her family to eat all but one meal at a gas station so as to keep her kitchen pristine? [/quote]
