[quote=Anonymous]My parents adhere to a 5 or 6pm cocktail and snacks. I try to do it when they are at my house. In a way it's nice. But I also think they're comfortable getting what they want when they want it if I don't do it. It's so odd though to see them watch the clock for 6:01 or whatever. And they are clearly peeved when we decline alcohol. This visit we all had colds (no, not Covid, no not bad, yes we told them) and we did not drink one drop. They were very wasp-kind but I could sense the irritation. I also don't love the snacks each night. I don't want an additional 200 calories every day![/quote]
