This is total BS. There would be Sunday football and they would see family more often. They would be fine with a beer and a pizza. Family gatherings don't have to be family drama, it's just women make up some Norman Rockwell imagine in their head.

Women make things so complicated.

Oh, please. What is there not to love about turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, mac & cheese, green beans w/bacon, pumpkin pie and other delicious treats?

And you get to eat this wonderful food while watching t.v., drinking beer and/or sipping on a glass of wine. How good is that?

Nothing is wrong with that or any other Thank giving dinner menu. It's not really that complicated either, especially if you are not a martyr ... assign guests a dish, make a few the day before and relax.

It's not like she didn't think she could go for a hike the morning of the dinner, she is just pissed her H is doing something without her. #princessAlert

Call me a princess, too, because I would be really disappointed in dh if he just upped and ditched me and the kids to go golfing with his buddies on the holidays and then expected to be served a feast when they all got back to our house. I think I might be tempted to tell him where he could stick those golf clubs as a matter of fact

I really don't see the big deal about this, but then again I have hosted DH's family for TG for the past 23 years.. He's fee to do whatever he wants in the morning.

My advice is to ease up and learn to relax about it. Otherwise I don't see a long marriage in your future.

You sound like a 1950s doormat. But if that keeps your marriage happy, I’m sure your DH loves it!

Yuck. I don't want mac & cheese on Thanksgiving. I'm from New England and squashes, maple sweet potatoes, other root vegetables, brussel sprouts, corn pudding and plus cranberry sauce are a must.

And I would take my mac & cheese over your maple sweet potatoes any day of the week. I even like sweet potatoes but my homemade mac & cheese is the bomb....and, it's something my kids will eat. There is that too.

Aren't huge meals one of the reasons why we ALL die 10 years younger?
