I also brought a chocolate cheesecake that I made as a gift. The aunts are the ones (so I found out) that bring all the desserts and are very competitive with each other about it. They seemed insulted that I brought a dessert and when it was gone before theirs, they seemed to act weird around me. I don't really get them and my father in laws family only gets together once a year with my mother in laws family for Thanksgiving.
I guess you can see why Im nervous about this.
(Thier dinner will be on Saturday. Im cooking dinner on Thursday for my side of the family, all gluten-free and they are supportive of this.) |
Ugh! This sounds like my future mother-in-law's family
I don't have any advice that differs from what's already been said, except GOOD LUCK!
If all else fails and you're not allowed to bring your own dish, you can always resort to plan B...claim that you're not feeling well and just push food around on your plate. Then run out to your car and eat a snack!
