it's just f-ing rude to be all, "oh, you can eat a couple of the side dishes. do NOT bring a main dish that you know you can eat." -- nm

Make something super delicious just to make them all jealous ... like pumpkin or squash lasange ... for ONE! -- nm - BroDuckJen Nov 7, 12:07 11
- pumpkin or squash? I thought you said something delicious? -- nm - dogbert Nov 7, 12:09 2
  - if you've never tried it - don't be a Pixie :) -- nm - BroDuckJen Nov 7, 12:16 1
    - you know what is delicious in lasagna? meat - dogbert Nov 7, 12:19
- oh damn, i just ate the last single serving of butternut squash lasagna last week. i'd frozen a couple and they were awesome. -- nm - kare Nov 7, 12:08 6
  - i'd be tempted to hide something on you so you don't starve, but, sit there at dinner with a half empty plate and 'smile bravely'. - Andie Nov 7, 12:10 5
    - seriously, pregnancy hunger is like nothing else. if i don't eat (and it usually needs to be a balanced meal) i feel *really* sick. - kare Nov 7, 12:14 2
      - she doesn't want you to get 'hangry' that day. -- nm - Diva Nov 7, 12:17
      - make more of that lasagne ... if there's too much I'll come eat it :D (it's delicious stuff - had it here at a local restaurant) -- nm - BroDuckJen Nov 7, 12:15
    - heh. tempting. (jeff is just going to let her know that we will be bringing some sort of main dish for me.) - kare Nov 7, 12:12 1
      - oh no - no you MUST go - and do that imitation of Bill Murray in What about Bob - when he's eating the corn - do it as you eat your own dish that you - BroDuckJen Nov 7, 12:17
- mmm...lasagna's a good idea. -- nm - Diva Nov 7, 12:08
totally agreed. -- nm - loosilu Nov 7, 12:06
maybe they are planning on making a main dish that you will be able to eat. - sycor Nov 7, 12:05 4
- she's not. -- nm - kare Nov 7, 12:06 3
  - so she is being passive aggressive? most people I know think of mac and cheese as a side dish at thanksgiving. everything but turkey is a side dish. - amanda Nov 7, 12:08 2
    - i ... think maybe? i honestly haven't decided if she's p/a or just sometimes ... doesn't get it. -- nm - kare Nov 7, 12:10 1
      - I'm guessing the latter. It sounded less like "YOU MAY NOT BRING ONE" and more like "don't put yourself out." -- nm - Dr.Vermin, just IMO Nov 7, 12:27
you're pregnant. bring a kare + baby sized portion of whatever main dish you'd like so you'll feel sated. -- nm - Diva Nov 7, 12:05 2
- and on T-giving, when you show up with it, say you had an insane craving for it. -- nm - loosilu Nov 7, 12:07 1
  - No way. You bring it and eat it and be done with it. No explanation needed, IMO. - Jim Nov 7, 12:18
