[quote=Anonymous][quote]        Kind of as a side note- how much are you supposed to do for guests? I LOVE and need coffee in the morning, but in laws frown on coffee use and don't have any. I'm very flexible and don't complain, but when I come often and stay for multiple nights, it's hard to not have coffee.

Do they frown on it for religious reasons? If so, that's your excuse for a morning run to Dunkin' Donuts or the bagel shop. You can bring stuff back for people as your cover. (Or have it be your morning walk, morning run, get the NY Times, what have you.)
    If it's not a religious thing, then stock your own there. I did that with my IL's, who are tea people. A little solo french press and a small container of coffee is all you need.

Nope. I wake up at 8 am when I'm with them. They've been up for hours and have the most ginormous breakfast ready when I wake. We sit and eat for nearly an hour while I dream about coffee. I truly hate eating breakfast.[/quote]

Sounds kind of like Harrison Ford getting used to the Amish in witness.  Maybe you should be up at 4, milking the cows with them?
Except that I don't think the Amish frown on coffee.

Maybe you need to go to extremes.  Like packing your own little machine for your room, hotel-style.  Or getting up at 4 to beat them, and making your run then.

I'm with you in spirit!   :P [/quote]
