    ask your son what she likes to eat/her favourite meal, if that sounds too difficult or you've never heard of it then think of something that is traditional to your home town and ask your son if she would like that.

    good luck (: x

    You should all go out to eat at a nice restaurant. Let someone else do the cooking. Then go back to your ranch for dessert and coffee. That way you can sit back relax and get to know your daughter in law to be.

    Nothing too different. I had my friends over and made a bunch of fucocchia(sp?) sandwiches and the ones I loved the most with onions and all the goodies didn't get taken. The boring plain ones were the ones that people went nuts for. Maybe you could ask your son what she likes and is there anything she talks about having back home that she misses.

    Don-t try to cook somethng Brazillian. She knows enough about her own countrys food. Cook something welcoming and family oriented that YOU do very well. Show her what your family meals are all about American style. If you would like to do somethng special, make a cake, with her name on it to welcome her into the family.

    Stick to your favorite foods and know she will enjoy. She will probably like what ever you fix. Make a beautiful colorful table, as we all know presentation and good company make for a good time.

    Good luck.

    Call her and ask her what her favorite meal is - it's a good way to break the ice!
