My DD was going out to dinner for Mother's day...with her MIL...to an expensive restaurant. We were invited but declined because of the expensive restaurant and because the in-laws are non-faves. Now my DD has decided theycant afford the expense either. I was having my errant, bipolar grandaughter and her kids over for ham & mashed potatoes. Now DD is coming, too, so I will add blackeyed peas (to put on the mashed potatoes-don't scoff, its really good) and get my DD after all. I dont even mind being 2nd choice. Too much. Well... I am always glad to have her with us, whatever the occasion.
