:grouphug: My nickname around C-mas time is Grinch. I totally understand about the snow - I'm right over the mountain from you in WNC. It gets old quick. I absolutely hate having to rush to go to FL right after C-mas day and have to start school back immediately upon returning, but that is nothing compared to not having one of my kids with me (even though I won't this year - My Marine will not be home). I am so sorry. I can't even imagine having to share one of my dc during the holidays.
I am also having to cook for vegans for C-mas dinner. My oldest ds and his wife are vegan, but we will have food for the non-vegans as well. If I were you, I would take something with me. Whoever is cooking should have food for both - vegans and non-vegans IMO.
