i've only just recovered from dinner with MIL and BIL the other night

MIL was grumbling about dinner, I asked if it was too hot, she said yes, it hurt her

I said i added no spice at all . she said nothing

then she ate dessert and said it made her feel better from the terrible stomach ache dinner gave her...lol

next week she'll order a hot curry from a restaurant ...lol

BIL kept on licking his knife, even after I glared at him

since he insists on eating like a 1 year old, a 2 year knows better, if there is a next time I will chop his food before hand and give him no knife

the conversation was just as riveting and social

That sounds very stressful. I vote for you cooking no more meals for these people. If they want to see you, arrange to go out to a restaurant instead

sounds like an idea
