You're acting a little entitled and demanding, OP.

In a perfect world, your hosts would have food and drinks for you when you wanted it. But do you really think that it's worth your while complaining about such a small thing? You're not in Yemen or South Sudan fleeing from barbaric men and starving to death, are you?

Could you, for example, exert yourself to call your SIL to ask her when she'd be back, in case you had to cook a little pasta for your children in her kitchen? With her permission, of course, and couched as "can I cook a little something to go with what you're buying"?

There are ways and means, OP, to try to get what you want and still look graceful.

I did text her (she never answers her phone) and ask if I could boil water or preheat the oven to have it ready for whatever she was bringing. She responded "not sure her". And it's called venting - I'm not complaining to her face, I'm just baffled by the behavior and venting. [/quote]
