Hehe, okay, it wasn’t that bad. Matter of fact, I’m feeling kind of guilty about bad mouthing the Old Lady all the time on my blog. As we all know there are two sides to every story and truth be told I am far from being a perfect daughter-in-law to the old biddy. (did I just call her that?) Okay, I’m not even a good daughter-in-law. Okay! I’m probably a bad daughter-in-law, but I guess I could be a lot worse.
For our Mother’s Day dinner I cooked chicken pot pie and my husband and I took it over to the Old Lady’s house. It wasn’t a bad day - I only got perturbed once and that was because I wasn’t used to her oven and the oven door slammed TWO times (it slipped from my hand and slammed shut) and the Old Lady had a conniption from the living room when she heard it. I guess if the situation was reversed and I heard someone slamming and banging around in my kitchen I might want to know what was going on also (trying to look at both sides of the story).
For dessert the Old Lady made a coconut cream pie. I just put the thoughts of her running nose (it didn’t do it Sunday) out of my head and had a piece of pie. It was actually pretty good. 
(I had to think over and over “don’t think about it, don’t think about it”.)
I love the way you talk about your MIL. Sounds like she’s related to mine.
It really could be worse though… I do realize that and I’m thankful we are all managing to get along as well as we do… I’m still going to vent about her though!
I love coconut cream pie, but I don’t think I would have been able to eat it under the circumstances, way to go.
