On a lighter note- dumb act of the day for MIL. She put my fresh pasta in the pantry. When I saw it I said, oh no! And she said she never saw this kind of past before and acted like I was so extravagant for purchasing it! Lord, get me through the next two weeks. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

If that's the case, it's pretty stupid of her to get riled up about some pasta. She should save all the rage for when MIL secretly baptizes the kids or tries to get her son to divorce her or something. [ Reply | More

I think my parents have probably never seen fresh pasta before either...they rarely eat pasta and when they have, it's always from a box. I love fresh pasta, but don't buy it very often...it is more expensive. That all said, I think that if the pasta fiasco is making you dread spending time with her, then you are really in for some HELL when a REAL issue comes up. Good luck! [ Reply | More
