as a follow up to the hot post below...this past weekend we had lots of family coming over to see our new digs. DH's uncle said "next time I come I want you to cook me a nice gujurati dinner!"I looked at him like he was crazy to expect that I knew how to do that (unless if by guju dinner he meant pasta or tacos), and DH's mom says "tell him that your mom will come and cook for him". So I said "yeah I'll call my mom to come shes the best cook she'll come all the way from DE for you". Apparently, MIL was referring to herself. I didnt realize this until there was an awkward silence, and DH told me later that his mom was upset. She's still upset apparently, but dude its been ONE week since the wedding, it's going to take me awhile to automatically think of someone else other than the woman who gave birth to me, when I hear the word "mom"!
