[quote=Anonymous]If I was offered food or coffee, I'd say no thank you. If someone is hovering about offering basic necessities, I might say something like "I've got it". But it could just be your DILs phrasing. I'm capable of asking for what I need. But I do think it is good hosting practice to say (once) "the extra towels are in here, extra toilet paper is here, and there are some toiletries/sunscreen here if you need them." Otherwise, assume they'll ask if they need something. My MIL is a bit overbearing and sometimes treats us like kids, so that colors my view of your comment. (We were staying with them, but going to spend an overnight elsewhere, and she was running around asking me if I packed socks. ????)[/quote]
