My MIL's offer of help for Christmas dinner.....

[Kteacher]

I reinjured my hip at school last week, so I'm limping, I'm in constant pain, I've got 3 kids, 2 jobs, 9 people to cook for on Christmas day (including MIL and FIL), and my MIL told me she'd help out for Christmas dinner by bringing ............a 1/2 gallon of ice cream

How sweet of her.
Hope you feel better soon. Good luck!

What a thoughtful MIL! Half gallon won't go far as a main course for 9 people.

 

[tkyes]

I hope your feeling better soon!! {{{hugs}}}

Feel better soon.

 

[tiggerlover]

Oh no!

I am sorry to hear this, I hope you are feeling better soon.

 

[hercamore]

What, sorry to hear you're hip is bothering you.

IYour MIL is no help.

If it were me, I'd send DH to to the nearest deli and have him get salads, rolls, dessert, and a ham I just had to hear up.

Good luck,

Herc.

One of these days I gotta get me a MIL!!!! NOT!!!

 

[4greatboys]

Whe she arrives hand her an apple pie and tell her that is rest of her dinner to be eaten with the ice cream.
Honestly though sorry to hear your mil is not to bright or not to nice, Im not sure which one it is.

 

[dianeschlicht]

She could be like my step mother and bring nothing, and then complain that we never have foods she likes! Of course, none of us has ever been able to find out what foods she DOES like!

 

[mhopset]

At least she offered. We have to tell my MIL what to bring. Then she told us she will be with us Christmas Eve, and doesn't want to come to Christmas dinner, she wants to go to the casino boat. DW told her "god forbid mom you would want to spend 2 days in a row with your kids."

I hope she looses are her money

 

[disykat]

Hot dogs go well with ice cream!

 

[disney funseeker]

what kind of ice cream?

 

[Serena]

I've give her a list of things to bring, the day before Christmas. In fact, I'd recruit everyone to help, or the deli would be the next choice.

 

[browneyes]

Tell her it's the main and only course.

 

[Serena]

LOL, I think only telling her once would be enough.

All good things come in 3's, Laurie.
