Well this is quite a different thanksgiving story, with the mother-in-law from hell obviously getting her what she deserves. Well written Maria, I hated her right from the start. LOL
cheers

Yes, tragedy. This sort of remind of one of Shakespeare's pieces. Especially the scenes around the periphery of Ophelia.
In fact, Shakespeare resorted to many of the plots in his plays in this manner. We usually call them tragedies.
A sinister scene.

Good write.
My best wishes.

Hi MJ,

Well, there's nothing like an unremorseful killer, especially on such a glorious day for some! lol

Nice little piece with a good strong voice. She obviously wasn't that bothered about her son either...

I enjoyed the story of the bad mother. I see stories of all kind with the good, bad or indifferent protagonist. I always wonder how the writer will end the story. I also liked the journey to the end very much.

Sometimes, Mother does NOT know best, Maria.
If Josh's mom had minded her own business and left him and Dixie well enough alone, they would have all been able to spend more Thanksgiving Day dinners together.
Meddling mothers.
What can you do?
Good story with a nice little "twist" at the end.
Bravo.

Good morning, Maria: Wow! You have a mean streak. (lol) I must say you wrote a really mean story.

I actually hate this main character. What a horrible mother she is! How could she not know that her own son might want to taste his wife's food? After all, she is carrying their baby. Sadly, in this world, there are people this cold and evil.

Your story was well - written and full of imagination so it's creative and bold. Good job, Maria.

    I hate her too! And yes, she is mean... and more. She's evil.
    Thanks for reading.

A very well-written heartfelt story. Being a victim that my first husband was not accepted by most of my family. I deliberately decided not to show my disgust to the choices of my children. As long as they makr my children happy I accept them as my own.

Well done, mate.
Very well written with good character development.
This is probably the ultimate example of an interfering mother-in-law.
She's certainly a very easy woman to dislike.
I'm lucky. My wife can't understand why HER mother thinks so much of me. As she says, "She should try living with you."

G'day Maria.

"I didn't. She was loud and uneducated." (lol)

"I had heard of a new substance that left no trace and acted quite quickly." (Can I have the name, please lol.)

"After a few minutes of idle chit(-)chat that"

"'That looks great. Can I try it?' Josh asked his wife." (Ouch! Darn!)

Well done, mate. You deserve a six for this, but I'm out, sorry.

What a great story and such a powerful, sad, twist at the end.

Great job.

Cheers Fez
