Critical family members

Anyone else have critical family members? They’d literally been in the door 5 minutes and every part of the roast I am cooking was critiqued. The sprouts cooked too early, turkey too long etc.

I feel like wondering why I bothered. It was all going well until they turned up and it all started. I love my family members but feel really upset. When I called her out for being critical she said I was spoiling her Christmas and she’s now giving me the silent treatment!

Luckily there’s enough else going on for me to Pretend it doesn’t upset me.

AIBU to be upset?

Don't invite them next year.

Meanwhile get stuck into your tipple of choice. Here we're having buck's fizz and apple pie Baileys. Grin

Remember what she said when you are serving up. She is rude and ungrateful. Unless she is Nigella? In which case, tell her to crack on with it.
yanbu.

Nigella would never be so rude! But apparently she gets a bit antsy if she doesn't have the right condiments.
