Cookerati

If you don’t want them to show up in pajamas you might need to tell them so.

Objections to talking about how they learned to clean a horse’s sheath needs to be stated out loud.

Your son’s girlfriend’s father caught the turkey on fire by deep frying it outside – which justifies the desire to stay away from that method of cooking.

While catching the turkey on fire may delay dinner, it will still be pretty darn tasty and turkey is only burned on the outside.  Still not convinced.

Cell phone etiquette is non existent and objections to it’s use during dinner needs to be stated out loud.

Your son will be the one to make a soft taco that requires two huge soft tortilla shells to cover the whole thing and needs two huge hands to contain it.

Don’t have a mouth full of drink when your husband takes a look and says " What the Hell is That?" – because it’s embarrassing when you start to choke on it while laughing.

Your son will pile too much in his mouth to chew and swallow even though his girlfriend is sitting right next to him.

Teens can be great company and eating a meal together is a good way to get to know them.
