As the dust settles and the oven cools, we're left with a delicious slice of life's unpredictable feast. And just like the best comfort food, it's the resolution that leaves us feeling full and satisfied. Now, let's dish out some of the spiciest takes from the internet's dinner table. 🌶️📝

Liz's odd behavior and entitlement to free food sparks controversy to what extent Liz planned for this to happen. Like not to the point of orchestrating the meltdown, but maybe once the meltdown started she saw her 'out' people with an appropriate grasp of social norms would not make passive aggressive public comments for not giving you food for free I also find it odd she didn't have some sort of fallback plan for a child who is a picky eater.

You paid for ALL the food, she didn't say anything to read her mind and maybe include half the birthday cake along with the meal you paid for? She is upset because she had to figure her stuff out for herself. You also took time away from YOUR child's party to ferry her back to her house. NTA 🍰
