    Upon reading this for the tenth time it occurred to me that Marney’s request of “no cocktail sauce” is my favorite part of this letter. Maybe some of the diners like cocktail sauce! Maybe the people bringing it would like some. What would Marney do if I wanted cocktail sauce and brought my own — tear it from my hands?

    Freaking Marney. Cocktail sauce nazi.

    Wow I never knew people like Marney even existed! That is truly a fearsome thing to behold. It’s one thing to be verbal that way, but to be in written form…pity his own family…lol

    My reply would be:
    Dear Marney
    Get stuffed! Oh and please use my recipe for that, not your own one that you brought last year.

    What a RIDICULOUS micromanager, I would immediatlely RSVP “no thanks!” and that she should never host anything. I’m sure a horrible time was had by all….

    “You know how Mike is”.
