Why even ask about the appointment?

That's fekking sad. Food looks so nice though.

Your mom an sibling are a******s , your dad may have allergy issues but if not could at least have a token bite

Id cut all ties with them. What a slap in the face.

Horrible, so sorry that happened

OP: I volunteer to eat your mashed potatoes. I'm vegetarian so can't have the turkey, but I'm sure it's delicious (if you eat meat - I've been vegetarian for long enough that the texture of 'meaty' things is odd to me, so even if I decided to stop being vegetarian I probably wouldn't like it too much).

That is why I like animals more than humans. They are always a ray of love and support. People are a 50/ 50 chance and family is about a 20 percent

You’ve got 61 pandas.. better cook more!

This makes no sense at all, I'm truly baffled by this

I would have invited my neighbors, had a pic with them eating that beautiful meal, and posted it with the caption "BEST. FAMILY. EVER. # THANKFUL!!!"

I've cooked like this. Made dinner half cooked at home and brought to in-laws. They loved it. I even cleaned after to just enjoy the day with them and hubs. I cook for my mom, sister, sister friend she had to invite, and hubs keeps wanting more items. I told him they picky and won't eat much. The 3 of them barely had anything on one serving. Hubs had few servings. Sis an mom one small plate. An her friend some seconds. Desert they brought store bought a plain. Raved about that. I wound up with left overs and they took their dessert back with them. I told hubs I won't cook for them a huge meal again. I know his Italian side is more more more but for 5 people that only two and a half have seconds it's not worth my whole day. And last time I asked my sis to prep something and she couldn't even mix two items.

Forget the family if they are that way. You made a nice dinner, they acted disrespectfully to ignore it, so enjoy it with your cat. I would not invite them to anything again.

I did the same thing. Nobody showed up. I wrote them all off.

I'm HUNGRY!

Food looks good & I bet it was delicious 😋 That would be the last time I make or cook anything for them ungratefuls 👎

Wow, you worked so hard and for what? Next year, just don't cook and see them get all upset that there's no food

Never invite them for anything again

Looks presentable and very tasty. Too bad.

Next time don't invite your family. Get then meal together and either share it with your friends or give a dinner for a neighbor in need. Just because they call themselves your family maybe you could do better.

It all looks perfect. Their loss. Never invite them again,

Only cook for people who really love and appreciate you. And it does not have to be family.

That is just so sad and messed up! I would've totally eaten with you! ⁠♡

Just wow. That's sad

Looks great.

And I bet they all pressured you to make all that food, too.

OMG, that's terrible - if your food was anything like this picture then it was amazing.

That sucks. I would LOVE that meal, it looks amazing.

You did a great job

Looks like a great meal. Next time get a couple of friends and not invite your family. Good luck.

I would never invite them to a holiday at my house again. From now on if they want to see me they can do all the cooking and hope that i don't have other plans.

Honestly I filled up with tears when I read this:(... Sorry for you!

That looks so good. No marshmallow sweet potatoes too by the look of it. That s**t is seriously weird.

Very sad for you. Awful family.

Tell the truth. Was the cat helping you cook?

This looks SOOO GOOD tho like gimme some I'll eat it!

All you need is the cat.

Man, that looks good! I'm sorry that the mom and sibling are a couple of jackasses. I don't know what the dad's food situation is (allergies/sensitivities/other health reasons), because he brought his own. But, I guess point for showing up?

That's cruel. I hope that it was the very last time OP did this. AND went NC.

M***********s.

That all depends what you actually scratched to make it. Ha ha.

Next year, invite those who have nowhere else to go.

Begs the question, why would they do that? Did you guys quarrel or something?. Seems dad wasn't expecting any food.

Freeze it in portions and you won't have to cook for days. Don't invite them next time.

Pot, Kettle.....

That looks absolutely scrumptious - hope you hid it in your room and ate it anyway!

Do it 🤗

My mother used to say the same about my beard... Her favorite thing was to say "what if died tommorrow" followed by attempts at guilt tripping. My usual answer to that was to tell her she's been trying to die tommorrow for thirty years now and yet she's still here. Usually shut her right up.

Police...

Censoring 'abuse' now BP? Wtf! Talk about it, or its just the sponsor money that matters for you?

I went through smth. similar while I was in college and still living with my parents. I had classes at the university all day long. With my very little money, I'd buy some cheap cheese to make sandwiches (the only lunch I could afford). Several times, my father and my brother found the cheese I had hidden in the fridge and ate it all (although there was cooked food available). I had no choice but to eat empty bread. I argued with them on this matter, but they didn't care.

The fact they got the cereal with 25% more almonds just to make sure you have an allergic reaction. They want you to die.

Shyt, that one should be locked away. Using such words about your kid... Demanding respect?! I wouldn't respect such a goblin , ever!

Why was she 'looking for your wallet' anyway?
