[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only day I skip an appetizer is Thanksgiving.  The dinner food is the star. If you don’t offer a drink and app, does everyone sit down to dinner within 15 minutes of arrival? Potentially, your guests could be fed and gone within the hour.  I prefer an evening in my home to move a little slower.[/quote]

Do you have overnight guests? Or if people are arriving, how long do you wait before you serve dinner?

When my ILs host, we are overnight guests, and they don’t serve anything between breakfast (one muffin and one hard-boiled egg each) and don’t serve anything until 3 or 4 p.m. It’s awful.

When we host, we have a little breakfast, then set up appetizers as lunch around lunchtime; people can eat as much or as little as they want. Then we eat a proper dinner at 5 p.m.[/quote]

You are at in-laws.  They don’t have to serve you for you to eat.  Just open the frig.  They are your spouse’s parents, not some distant acquaintance where helping yourself to food might be awkward [/quote]

Hahahahaha! Google “DCUM Burger King Lady,” read the threads, and get back to me.[/quote]
