I'm sorry, I haven't been as active here as I wish. I wanted to let you know that when my boyfriend/ partner, took me home to Maryland for Thanksgiving to meet his family, it actually turned out to be a success. My cranberry-orange relish was a hit!
Initially I was very worried about this, because of class differences (my family is working class his is upper middle-class). I asked you for your opinion on what to do concerning this, and I want to thank all of you who responded to tell me not to worry about this. (specifically but not limited to: lizzielee, Pellaz, CCRox, NtrdSandlin, Blue, and of course Dfiant). You were right, it was not an issue and his family welcomed me very warmly. TBH, they were nicer to me than my own extended-family is.
Christmas is my favorite time of year, also I started dating my boyfriend right before Thanksgiving last year, so we enjoy spending the Holidays together. So I've just been busy Christmas shipping, decorating, we drove to upstate NY a few days ago to cut down our own tree at a Christmas-tree farm. All in all I'm doing very well and plan to be here more often as my schedule is easing up. Everyone here has always been so kind to me.
