Re: Queen of the kitchen
I’m convinced my MIL would add extra mirchein to the food, bc I have a pretty decent tolerance level of spicy (ok more like medium/high) but oh god I’d cry after eating. And cry again as well. Even my mom’s food, there are a few things I LOVE and if I eat anything else, it’s bc I want the home cooked food. I guess I"ve gotten less picky as I’ve gotten older.
Snarkiness aside (but It is amusing how everyone thinks they’re better than their MIL at cooking and cleaning 
), I’ve always been pro-living separately. I honestly don’t know how I could handle being told how to peel an onion. I’ve stayed w in laws for weeks/months at a time, learned early on to not even bother cooking (my husband asked me to make a dish for a davat that I’m known to make well–he even said it was great–not a single person in my in laws touched it … smh ) if my MIL was around. We live with my parents now and after a few months, my mom and I learned to stay out of each others way in the kitchen and give space. It also helps that I work full time, so I dont’ even need to use it very often.
