Any holiday that you consider to have a "main" meal in it... So I guess
you'll be having SPAM for your "main" meal today (or maybe even all of
them)? hehe

Having never cooked a holiday meal in my life, I had to say my answer
not in list.
I have always been invited out or eaten in a resto.

Let's just call it a huge phobia of cooking for guests and people know
it.

We'll remember that in the dinner party thread.
FYI: dinner parties do not have to stress you out.

Passover, we sit down at around 7, eat around 8-8:30.

Most folks I know who do Easter eat sometime in the afternoon, between
1-3.

Oesatara friends eat after circle.

And then there are the kinks when the kids want/need/hafta go to the
girl/boyfriend's house or the Inlaws also...Juggling between families
gets hard.

Add a bunch of divorces in that mix and you're lucky to know who is
even going to show up much less when.

And whether or not we're working that holiday, and what shift.

Ain't that the freakin' truth. <sigh> I've worked every Holiday for the
past several years. Working night shift helped, but it did put a strain
on my sister and brother in law to try to have the meal ready by noon or
so. They are not morning people. I always was willing to help cook of
course!

Thank you, Barb.

I had my *main* "Holiday" meal for dinner last night, about 6:15
PM... roast beef, baked yams in jackets, asparaguys. Will have cold
roast beef on rye tonight (w/ketchup & mayo)... defrosting beef
'shroom barley zupp for tomorrow, and may make hash from the rest of
that roast... just gotta fry up a big mess o' diced spuds and onyuns.
With five fluffy felines a large roast doesn't go far.

In my family of origin, it's always been 3pm, so that's what it is for
me, mostly. Christmas Eve dinner was at regular dinner time this year
("regular dinner time" = 7pm in this house), because I didn't want the
particular guests we were having to be hanging around all day. I wanted
them in, fed, and out. And good riddance. :-)

I'm sorry that you were obligated to invite over people you felt that
way about. I'd be particularly annoyed if it was a ruining a holiday
celebration. To date, I haven't been in that position.
