I always remember as a child the food at dinner was all on the table for our family of six to help themselves, and the food was always HOT. Nowadays, I can't get any of the food to remain hot. Once it hits the table, it cools off immediately. Maybe my parents had some kind of trick to make this happen (they are both gone) but it beats me how they did it. Any suggestions?

I have an authetic American silverplate teapot that dates from the Civil War. Virtually all the pate has been worn off, leaving the pot dark, as if it were made of lead.

I wish to serve tea in it, as it is sound for this purose, but it looks rather dark and unappealing. Re-silvering it would restore its brillance.

However, it IS an historical piece, and being 140 years old, I'm told that I could ruin the value of the piece by altering it in this way.

What to do? Ruin the value by re-silvering it so that can be used, or leaving it sitting on a shelf looking like an inheiretance from the Addams Family?

I'm torn both ways, and hope that someone has the insight to sway me one way of the other.

Thanks for all imput!

We're having friends over for dinner on Saturday, and I need something nice, but a little 'different' to serve for dinner. I usually do something like salmon, salad, rice, veggies- or chicken or a pork tenderloin, but I'd like to do something a little out of the ordinary and fun...any suggestions?

Holidays with mother in law?
Holiday hell with new mother-in-law?
About a month ago I had asked my mother in law if she would mind If I do Thanksgiving my mother had no problem with it but mother in law did. She said it was her favorite holiday and she wanted to do it. I said no problem I just thought it would make things a little easier so that we wouldn't have to go to her house at 12 and my moms at 5. I have no problem doing that but my mother inlaw does. She thinks you should go to one place for the holidays I have always went to 2 familys for thanksgiving and I want to keep it that way. I like to see my family every year as well as my husbands family and I am willing to do both.
My mother-in-law is being really selfish she calls last night to talk to my husband and they are discusing Thanksgiving my husband tells her that we won't be eating dinner there we will have appitizers and stay a while but we are eating at my wifes mothers because we ate last year at your house for dinner. This is the problem my mom is flexible she will do lunch or dinn

she will do lunch or dinner but my mother in law needs to give alittle too. She wanted to have dinner between 2:30 and 3pm. I swear she does it because she is jelous of my husbands relationship with my family we are all very close and we do alot of things together. She doesn't like that. She wants us to go to her house this year and my moms next I don't feel I should give in to something I feel so strong about but I don't want to be her enemy we just got married in September but we have been together over 6 years. Ohh and when she said I couldn't do Thanksgiving she said I can do Christmas day and then she tells us she wont even be their she is going to her sisters. But we have to go to her house christmas eve

So organized that you have nothing to do on Thanksgiving day but, turn on the oven and watch the parade. Oh yeah, watch the games?
If not. What have you left to do?
