You have 90% of a Hallmark movie right there. All you need is a lovelorn third sister who's being set-up with a single third friend of the husbands. They'll despise each other at appetizer time but be engaged by dessert.

She’s an uptight business woman from the big city who decided having a family was something she had to put aside to climb the corporate ladder. He’s a laid back small town carpenter who is also a pianist who had his heart broken by his high school sweetheart.

This crosses culture barriers, Thanksgiving isn’t a thing on my side of the pond, but this is a typical family Christmas dinner for us.

[@choonblaze]

There is no culture barrier when you are english speaking western individual. Try comparing your life to an arab who don't speak english or doesn't know what christmas means

[@mpetersen6]

Around 2007 w had a family in town that decided for 4th of July to have deep fried turkey. Naturally the followed the Redneck recipe. 1) Open a case of beer 2) Consume case of beer. 3) Repeat steps 1 and 2 4) Fire up fryer full of oil. 5) Drop in Turkey 6) Set garage on fire Naturally after the fire department arrived they started fighting with the firemen and throwing empty beer vessels at them. Grandma got hauled off to the hoosgaw. Real Sconnies via Alabama by way of Flatland not likely.

Witnessed it first hand (I'm an only child) at my boyfriend's late (Minnesotan) mother's house over a lamp and the dinner table between his normally sane sisters. I was 30 and sisters 35 and 37. I watched it like a safari - it was a little mortifying. Two brothers didn't even blink. 🤣🤦‍♀️ Two WASPS losing it.

Bro that Broncos joke was uncalled for 😂

[@olliefoxx7165]

"Cover the burntness with marshmallows" Lesson learned: Burntness is a word. Marshmallows are the bondo of food.

[@victrola2007]

So true! My friend's mother brought the kids up with "Marshmallows are our family glue" philosophy citing it as an integral food group. Since food=love=family=EVERYTHING, i.e. cooking and eating together. 🥰 (None were overweight, btw). Some of their best memories included marshmallows and types/sizes considered different food groups - even made their own: kiddo heartbreak? Break important news? Hot cocoa with tiny ones. Camping? Smores. The list is long and yes, best and worst cooking times/tastes included marshmallows. ❤🎉

[@PirateLeota]

This is too real. Funny, but so real. My sister-in-law lost it one year when we couldn't make it to her house because we were stuck in traffic and the car was overheating. We were supposed to bring the mashed potatoes and my mother-in-law. I also have to say, one of my biggest gripes is that the men get to sit around and relax, before AND after the meal, and the women do all the work. It ain't right. Spend two days cooking, just to have it all scarfed up in 15 minutes and then have to clean and clean and clean (including the dang bird). Oh, and my father-in-law did not like turkey, so I also had to bake a ham! Ugh! Oh, and don't forget - two kinds of stuffing! One with giblets, one without. Dang picky eaters. Thank you guys for helping me see the funny in all of that!😂

[@ghosttownreview1531]

In my Midwestern family the men are in charge of cleaning up afterwards. Back in the 60s and 70s when I was a kid it was fun to see my grandfather and uncles cleaning the kitchen until it was spotless and the floor was mopped. They seemed to enjoy doing it.

This must be a cut down version or just not in the Midwest. You are forgetting the Dad's watching the games, and then telling the other Dad that their team sucks, and why their team is going to the Super Bowl. Also forgot the long winded story about what the kids have done. Or why so and so ain't coming. So like we need like a few more hours. Actually when adding the goodbye at the end of the night We got a whole new season of 24 because we know how long the goodbye can take.
