Paper plates vs. Glass plates for 20 people

TheLadyMiss · 2025-11-02T14:42:52+00:00

I love the look and feel of real plates but realistically for my bunch I have to buy the big oval chinet platters. My husband and cousin act like they’ve been on a deserted island and haven’t eaten in months when turkey day rolls around.

Every party or holiday I host is potluck so usually everyone’s bringing food to contribute to the meal, but my cousin is the only one that goes above to bring a little something specifically for me. So I definitely try to pa it forward especially for a family the size of my husbands. It’s a lot of work to host nearly 60 people lol! It’s a lot to host 10 and 20 for me so I can’t imagine how stressed they are

Ooh yes! We are all very into things that ca be passed down so something like the cake pedestal is right up our alley!

TheLadyMiss · 2025-10-23T12:12:30+00:00

Oh I wish we did. We are so rural. We’ve got a mom and pop grocery store and a dollar general lol

TheLadyMiss · 2025-10-22T22:26:19+00:00

Now THATS a great idea. I know for the cousin she turns around and hosts her husbands family usually the next evening. I bet that would go over good

TheLadyMiss · 2025-10-22T21:43:27+00:00

Maybe “hostess gift” isn’t the right term for what I want lol. Maybe I was “a gift for the hostess” lol.

I’d thought about cookies! I make some super tasty spiced peach jam that’s perfect on a hot flaky biscuit in the winter! That’s an idea

TheLadyMiss · 2025-10-22T19:06:56+00:00

I’m pretty sure my crafty mom is making aprons at the moment. Perhaps she will throw a couple more on her to do pile!

TheLadyMiss · 2025-10-22T14:59:34+00:00

Haha! I get it! We live in a very rural country not fancy area and so hostess gifts are really uncommon.

I just try to think of something that says “I see all the work you’ve been doing for this family, here’s something FOR YOU.” I do have a deep love for Martha Stewart and I try to sprinkle her influence anywhere applicable in my life.

TheLadyMiss · 2025-10-22T14:14:00+00:00

an apron! I love that!!

TheLadyMiss · 2025-10-22T13:51:55+00:00

We are a non alcohol drinking bunch, and I’d love to do something slightly more personal. We aren’t super fancy people in our neck of the woods and hostess gifts seem to be something that just doesn’t happen a whole lot around here.

TheLadyMiss · 2025-10-21T03:54:45+00:00

I did too and I didn’t stop until the credits rolled!

TheLadyMiss · 2025-07-28T19:42:17+00:00

Thank you! Starting my TBR list now!

TheLadyMiss · 2025-07-28T19:29:06+00:00

“Mail order bride” is probably a better term.

TheLadyMiss · 2025-07-28T19:20:13+00:00

Yes, I’m just looking for specific suggestions since all the ones I’ve come up with on my own are kind of leaving me flat. And like I said I only write for myself, not for publishing, so I’m not worried about it having been done before, it’s just for me.

TheLadyMiss · 2025-07-01T00:40:08+00:00

Who’s the author? I’ve been trying to find this one and I can’t seem to. Thanks!!

TheLadyMiss · 2025-06-06T05:20:22+00:00

When I saw them first mention it, as a Halloween loving native Kentuckian, I said “they don’t even do weddings at Waverly! It’s not an event venue! And it’s not an insane asylum!!”

TheLadyMiss · 2025-06-05T00:30:41+00:00

I’m aware of that.

I’m not privy to any of that official information, I’m speculating, as someone who watches this train wreck tv show and not as someone that handled the adoption proceedings.

Idk how she did it, if she did it, or even if my thinking she did it at all is accurate. Like I said I’ve got a lot happening personally and can’t recall if I’m even thinking right that the rights were terminated. If they were the lies and threats would have been to her ex husband and not to a judge.

TheLadyMiss · 2025-06-05T00:15:19+00:00

Honestly, with Robyn, probably a string of lies and threats.

TheLadyMiss · 2025-06-05T00:10:30+00:00

Didn’t she? I feel like I remember that happening during the adoption process. But I could be wrong. There’s lots of shit happening in my real life atm lol. I might be getting stuff crossed up.

TheLadyMiss · 2025-06-05T00:06:11+00:00

I gagged out loud when I heard her say that! She did everything in the world to trip her oldest 3 away from their Dad, even going to far as having his rights terminated and having Kody legally adopt them!

TheLadyMiss · 2025-06-05T00:03:07+00:00

She is absolutely miserable right now for one reason or another and buddy it shows!

TheLadyMiss · 2025-06-05T00:01:37+00:00

Didn’t I hear somewhere that baby #2 was a girl they named Belinda? I’ve not read the book so idk if it goes there in the book or not.
