[quote=Anonymous]I tried to make pb toast for my starving toddler who wakes at 5:30am while we waited for the rest of the household to wander in for a promised “big brunch.” The only bread available was artisan rye and the only peanut butter was chunky, separated, and stored in the refrigerator so it couldn’t be mixed easily or spread. Guess the chances my kid would even eat that sort of snack?

I bring my own groceries now but it’s infuriating to have to pack milk and bread and peanut butter etc. We don’t eat strangely but they are incapable as hosts to provide us with normal food at normal times.

On the flip side, my mil packs all the food she plan to eat when she visits us, even for the day. I’m talking l, tiny containers of milk for her coffee and slices of cold cuts and pickles for her lunches. A baggie with exactly one cookie so she can break it apart and share one piece each with the grand kids. They get so confused and disappointed when she tells them she brought a treat for after their lunches and it’s just a sliver of grocery story tollhouse cookie each. I could go on and on. [/quote]
