Dungeater posted... literally what even do i do to mentally prepare for all thisYou could start by learning to use Choptsticks. It's not hard, just some sticks.

The majority of that does sound stress inducing and awful but honestly the long drive through the mountains sounds nice and at the end of the day you get to chow down on some food. I'm a fucking pig who loves food so ignoring my food issues that don't allow me to eat out if I was you I would be going John Belushi in the Animal House cafeteria on that food. --- PSN ID: sled_dogs76 60" Pioneer Kuro Elite PRO151FD, Yamaha RX-V3900 A/V Receiver, Oppo DV983-H player.

It's fine that you don't know how to use chopsticks, but you can always practice now. You have a whole month to. Here's what you should do to impress 1. practice with chopsticks everyday 2. bring something over on Thanksgiving day (take off your shoes). Flowers, and if there's something she likes (edible or even a gift). Ask your husband what she likes 3. Offer to help with the dishes and dinner prep Bonus Super impress mode 1 learn their/her language and speak (even hello, thank you, goodbye) edit: oh you're Canadian? Well you still have time to learn chopsticks (the fudge.. you married him for 1p years ._.), and ask your husband what other cultural things you should know to impress her. --- Less is more.
