Your sister seems clueless regarding how to host these events. Explain to her what we mentioned in the comments here. The host cooks the turkey and ham in their own oven so when the guests arrive it is fresh out of the oven, the gravy also comes from the juices of that same turkey she cooks in her own oven. The stuffing/dressing she would also be responsible for it because that gets jammed up into the turkey that she cooks in her own f***ing oven.
Eh stovetop stuffing is popular enough that it’s reasonable to ask someone to bring it.
That said, general rule is requests can be like “dessert” or maybe a “cheesy casserole”. If someone has a dish they’re good at for potluck it’s reasonable to request that. But if you want specific dishes you should be doing a volunteer sign up
Combining turkey and ham of all things seems almost deliberate…
Yeah i think so too,
My wife said the same.
I work for myself so sometimes I think my family thinks I make lots of money.
I really don’t, honestly I would make more working for someone else, all I get is some flexibility
