[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here! I am enjoying this, even for those who are slamming me. Believe me, we have more than enough food: six racks of ribs, 6 pounds of 80/20 burger meat, packs of Nathan's hot dogs, fruit salad ( well we will have it) , potato salad, beer, wine, soda, juice, Fried chicken, watermelon, the works. I am telling you though, these kids are bottomless pits and what generally happens is that they start eating like cups of applesauce or yogurts, or fruits, chips, etc that we don't even put out and are meant for school lunches. We also have one kid who is an athlete in training and likes to have certain things around- rice cakes, quinoa in cups, peanut butter, chocolate milk etc, and all of that gets annihilated too. I just think it is kind of rude to watch your kids sack someone else's pantry family or not . [/quote]

If that were my niece or nephew - I would call them and ask what they want to eat.  Buy exactly what they want and have it out for them.  My mom is on a special diet and I accommodate her and anyone else with allergies, special diets, disabilities, etc.  This is your job as a host!

I even do this for my kids’ friends that come for play dates.  My job is to make people feel welcome in my home and I take that job seriously.[/quote]
