My sister decided to spend Christmas with her bf family this year and so she made tamales to take over for dinner, she did this even though they said it wasn't necessary to take anything. She has met the family only once, so this is her second time. She hasn't told me all the details since she is still there, but in short, she told me that they told her they preferred to have a traditional American Christmas dinner and that maby she could bring tamales another time. She said her bf's mom seemed bothered and that she stuck the tamales in a freezer in the garage. She said she is trying to be graceful and didn't make an issue of it, but WTF?? I'm probably more pissed than she is. Those tamales going to waste, I'm sure mom will throw them out as soon as they leave.
