| Anonymous Coward User ID: 52042105  Canada12/24/2014 11:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Started around noon getting everything prepped, stuffing, bean casseroles, yams, everything. Got done around 2:30, so wrapped all the dishes up and put in refrigerator. People showed up, typical apps, booze, everyone great. Throw all the stuff in the oven. Started taking shit out. Not cooked. Some 1/2 cooked, some complete soggy shit, some burnt in the middle. Ok, everything back in. 1/2 hour later, even worse. Everybody at the table started to get quiet. So I get shit out and start microwaving it. Fuck. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 66352400 Long story short -- if you use heavy ass dishes, they heat up and stay nice and hot for quite a while. SAME THING HAPPENS IN REVERSE. Once these bitches cool down, they stay cold. Man I'm a dumbass. Microwaving didn't help any. So now I am getting looks like I'm special needs and "oh, we just thought everything was wonderful" bullshit and everybody left early. Well, off to aunts tomorrow where most of the same people will be there. Last time I EVER do this shit. Fucking starve or go to Jack-In-The-Box I don't fucking CARE. I'm getting wasted. Fuck it hahahahahahahahahhaahhahahahahahahaahahaha......hahahahahhaha |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 61705678 United States12/24/2014 11:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | One suggestion. At the point they were walking in the door, the food should have been in the oven and warmed up enough to give off a great aroma to welcome them. When you walk into a home for dinner and you don't smell anything cooking, that's usually a bad sign. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 58700537 United States12/24/2014 11:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | For first time entertaining at home - try all the recipes out on family or friends long before you do them and serve them to guests. Also - if you are forced to do an unfamiliar recipe or entertain a larger-than-you’re-accustomed to group - have enough cash on hand to take them out for Pasta if you screw it up! Other trick is to get two or three glasses of champagne into them BEFORE you serve the first course. Kills their appetites and their taste-buds too, to some extent. So they won’t eat as much and won’t notice if it’s not that great. |

Take heart. Enjoy the season and have a good laugh about it tomorrow when you meet up w/ your victims again. Cheers! |

She make Thanksgiving and Christmas better than any restaurant, the woman is 85 and she still has it. I have eaten all over the country at some insanely expensive places, and I have had friends over for my grandmas dinner, they all agree, it is otherworldly. I say that to tell you that every other person in my family fails when they try to cook. So dont feel bad. |
