[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the guest at Thanksgiving rather than the host. I don't know where to be - if I'm on the couch I get an exasperated call to help out, but if I'm in the kitchen I am in the way. As soon as I get my kid settled into an activity an older relative will interrupt to take a group photo or insist the kids need to color turkey placemats or something. I like seeing extended family, but the traditional meal is gross and the amount of stress that goes into the holiday makes it my least favorite. I wish my hosts (relatives) would chill. Let's have tacos and watch the dog show on TV. [/quote] An invitation is not a summons. Why don’t you stay home and eat tacos? Or why TF don’t you host for once?[/quote] Because I love them, and because I'm allowed to have a "peeve" without wanting to cut ties and set the whole thing on fire. At the table this year I'll suggest we do tacos at my place next time. Will let you know how it goes. [/quote]
