Not sure whether to put this under 'Family' or 'Food/Drink' but since it's about getting food & drink with a family member, I guess we'll go with the latter...
I was just informed by my mother that she's taking care of the cake and I should therefore work with my MIL to get the food for Henry's 1st Birthday Party. This wouldn't be a problem normally but 1), I'm trying to come down with something, 2), I really don't want to have to talk to my MIL right now, and 3), the party is this SATURDAY. Which means not only do I have to deal with MIL but I'll have to deal with her by myself, while I'm feeling cruddy, tomorrow.
I have no idea what to do here, people. I had (wrongly) assumed that my parents had the situation under control - the party's being held at their house - and that we wouldn't have to worry about it but obviously we now have a problem and a time crunch. I don't know where I'm going to pull together enough food for the fifteen or so people who are coming to my parents house. I know, I know, at least I have a full 24+ hours to come up with a plan but I really don't want to deal with my MIL's health freak ideas on what's okay to eat and what's not (no offense to the health freaks, I'm just pregnant and want real food) and I don't want to have to deal with her before the party Saturday at one!
I'm about ready to pull out my hair at this situation. Help!
