I’ve had to put up with family members sitting at my dinner table, eating my food, drinking my booze, and ranting against Republicans, Donald Trump, the Catholic Church. Our home has always been open door hospitality during holidays, but not anymore.
Everyone comes to our house for the good free food and booze and beautiful tablescapes. It usually costs us between $500 to $1000 to accommodate all the family members.
If it’s just me and hubby at the dinner table from now on, I don’t care.
