Invest in some Rubbermaid storage containers for your partner.  I guess the best thing to do would be to wash your own dishes after you cook.  By kicking her out of the kitchen, you may make her feel unwanted and there may be some resentment there.  I feel your pain.  I had a roommate that I love to death and he was pretty clumsy.  But you have to love the person more than you do the bakeware.

One of the suggestions I would make is to send them a nice table runner and napkin set or ... a gift certificate to their favorite Grocery Store -- so that they can use that to purchase the Thanksgiving meal ingredients this year!

If you are old enough to prepare a meal i would cook them a nice dinner with candle lite, play some soft music and kinda be like thier waiter but stay out of the room as much as possible so they can have privacy. If your not old enough to cook, i would make them a gift (or buy one which ever is in your budget) and buy each a small personal cake. personal sized cakes will run you around 5.00

every once in awhile i try to have dinner cooked and on the table with just candles lit when he gets home from work. take him to the park for a picnic. anything that you do different from routine should show him. good luck, and GOD BLESS YOU!!!!

The very best gift giving ideas I've come up with came from www.thinkthoughtful.com.\nI always try to do something personal, but I'm not creative! I guess a painted rock isn't romantic...my husband loves tools. I thought this was horrible-I wouldn't want kitchen appliances, why would I give tools?! He told me that Home Depot is for him what the jewelry store is for me. It makes his heart sing!! So, I go with that and he is like a little boy on Christmas morning. It's about what makes it wonderful for that other person. Good luck and have fun!

A great book would be a wonderful gift! Even magazines and other reading material, I think he'd enjoy. Stuff that they can really use. Even stuff like batteries are great because there are limited places they can buy that stuff for their personal use.\nPs. If you have any further questions, you can email me, if you'd like.\n*Edit: Oh, I forgot to mention... also phone cards! That's always a great gift! Or a portable DVD player (if you want to spend that much money).

I say porn is always a nice gift, but since this is your sis in law I wouldn't try it. I think one of the most thoughtful gifts is to get her a gift certificate to her favorite restaurant, just call them up and have them send it to her address.

When Mom and Dad get tired of cooking the holiday meal, it's time for the next generation to step up to the plate (er--roasting pan might be better).  :-)

I save all my change in an old ceramic cooking pot. At the end of the year I cash it in for dollars and give it to my children to spend on gifts for the holidays for their friends, family, whomever. They love it and it doesn't cut into my budget.
