I'm sitting here waiting for the damn potatoes to bake for at least another 45 minutes before I can even think about going to bed so, for those that are celebrating tomorrow, what's on the menu?
We are hosting brunch and having: Ham Potato Gratin Quiche Sausage and cheese breakfast casserole Jalepeno corn bread Chicken salad Croissants Fruit salad Lemon bread Raspberry ricotta cake Mimosas Some other champagne drink my mom is making
We are only having 11 people...I think this is too much food 😳
We're doing brunch at my aunts. I'll likely only be able to eat my deviled eggs, fruit and a mimosa. Everything else will likely be a no go for me. I think we're doing lunch after at the in laws, got no info on that though.

Doesn't anyone consider your dietary restrictions when you have a family gathering?

Just us tomorrow - a little bit of ham, pre-made mashed potatoes, a veggie, some pineapple, and probably deviled eggs...cause we have to do something with the ones we colored. ETA: and crescent rolls

No. They all think it's something I can be flexible with or that it's more of a diet thing. My dads side is that way too. It's frustrating but I just make an effort to bring a main dish or things that I know are ok for me to eat. Surprisingly DHs family is great about it but he has some extended family with celiacs and my MIL goes gf as a diet but it's always nice to have so many options at their functions.

We eat brunch at my mom mom's retirement community. It's a nice big buffet of breakfast stuff, carved roast beef, ham and various sides. Since we eat such a giant meal there we just have hot turkey sandwiches, pasta salad and deviled eggs later on at my parents house self serve when ever anyone feels hungry again.
I want to go somewhere with all this food! It's just the four us today. A friend said they maybe having a cook out later so we will go to that but that's it.
Just the 4 of us. Ham, crescent rolls, sweet potatoes, maybe potato salad if I can cook the potatoes up quickly in the instant pot, maybe corn, maybe zucchini. And a little carrot cake for dessert.
