[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ummmm am I the only one who literally makes one meal for my parents or ILs when they visit? It’s the starting meal, when they arrive. After that they take over the kitchen to give me a break since they are retired and in good health, while I am busy with two young kids.[/quote] My mom would cook every night if I let her. My ILs have never once cooked or given us a break. They stay as long as 18 days at times and except to be fed and watered all day long every day. Even in the before times when we went to the office every single day. I once years and years ago put together a roast and asked my MIL if she would please put it in the oven at 400 at a certain time otherwise it would not be ready. She took it upon herself to root around and find my digital meat thermometer, stick it in the roast, and roasted the thermometer with the roast. Plastic melted all over the roast and the digital parts exploded. Shockingly they also expect me to make the coffee and huff and puff around my kitchen if I haven’t preset it up at night and will whine for the 10 minutes the machine takes about “is the coffee ready” while I’m trying to get the kids fed and out the door to school. We don’t drink coffee. We have a drip machine we haul out solely for their visits. It is nothing difficult. Also. Get out of my kitchen at 6:30 am when I’m desperately trying to get everyone out the door on time. You can wait to 7 for your stupid coffee when we are gone you silly addicts. [/quote] Why don’t you just… stop doing all of that?[/quote]
