Birthday dinner for husband...?!
I am having a nice b-day dinner for my husband, and out of kindness, I have invited his parents to come!. They hate me!. They have always and will always hate me!. How do I entertain and still maintain control as they stare and belittle my every move!? Note:Husband frightened of parents, so he just sits quietly and does NOTHING!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I love the gift of food for my husband's birthday, but wouldn't ruin his day with his mother coming over!. I say you make a nice dinner with place settings, wine, candles, blah blah blah!. then the next night make him his favorite dinner, do his favorite activity, and tell him "that in an effort to keep playing "nicey-nicey" with his parents, we had that uptight dinner last night!. But tonight is how i really want to celebrate your birthday!.!.!.!." you've covered food, nice to mom, and sexy all in one!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
Remember you're doing this for your husbands birthday! So, don't even pay attention to what his parents are doing!. You need to smile, laugh and act like you are having the greatest time in the world!. You could also try to kill them with kindness! Remember if they know something bothers you, they're probably going to keep doing it!. So, you have to pretend nothing they do bothers you!. Enjoy your husbands birthday and most of all make sure he enjoys it!!Www@FoodAQ@Com
If they are coming to your house, remember your having them at your house on your terms!. This is your turf, your territory, your house!. Once you remember that these people are guests in your home, remember that you can throw them out if they misbehave!. If you are belittling you while in your home, remind them that this is your home and you invited them to your house!.
You maintain control by remembering your home and its your own turf!. If you have to, remind them!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well, since you have parents coming, so much for the "cook naked and serve beer" idea!.!.!.!.!.!.
Geez, I don't know why you would put yourself thru such a night, esp!. if your DH has no stones to stand up to his parents!. Tell him to borrow a pair and be your support!.
Maybe serve something that goes quickly: Lasagna, Salad, Garlic Bread, then B-day cake for dessert!. If you could have a friend drop by 2 hours after they arrive!.!.!.!.maybe they will get the hint and go home!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
