3. My family: applicable traditional white American fare for that holiday.

   Her family: applicable traditional Mexican fare for that holiday. (tamales on Christmas – as an example)

4. I’m no longer married but my ex mil would insist on her 3 sons (and wives) not only being present with kids if applicable, to eat lasagna with cinnamon. Not Italian and.who the hell puts cinnamon in lasagna? Became a family joke.

   Don’t even ask me about her Christmas cookie concoctions

5. My family exists.

   My spouses’s family is imaginary, and probably a lot more fun to hang out with.

6. We don’t care / they are Christians

7. The holidays aren’t approaching, they started back in October.
