    Talk to your mother. Tell her how frustrated you are about the last minute cancellations. Ask her if there’s an issue you aren’t aware about. If she can’t or won’t say, organize your next dinner with something that is more easily stored if you have people cancel. You’ve already said you were thinking of skipping your spot. If they start bailing, hit the family chat with “I thought it was a fluke the first time half of you cancelled on me, but no one cancelled on mom, so I thought I’d try again, and again some of you cancelled. So I want to know why. I’m not taking my turn again until you people explain, and you know who you are.”

    The family is insulting her. I would suggest the family starts doing potluck dinners It costs a lot to do all that!
