Beccy... no way. Every holiday, birthday, whatever, is at her place and she's in charge the whole way... "old battle axe" comes to mind.
Here's an example of her demeanour. We went over for lasagna about five years ago and it was the best I have ever had. I praised it up and everyone agreed. I asked for the recipe and she pointed to my brother. She had gone shopping and he used a recipe from a Carnation milk can. We've never had lasagna or spaghetti or any Italian dishes there since.
