Dear Boopers:

Why don't you try having a "pot luck" meal next holiday time? It's too much for one person to do all the cooking for a holiday meal - the varied dishes that are brought to the festive table for a pot luck meal, are fun and delicious. And it gives every person part of the responsibility and puts each guest "on the spot", not just you! I always felt that cleaning the house was harder than doing all the cooking, but I had to do both. That is why I suggest that you try a pot luck approach next time.
