Very Important Puzzler Delia Ephron talks with Ask Me Another host Ophira Eisenberg about growing up in a family full of writers.

Is your foodie sister-in-law insisting that everyone "elevate" the next family potluck by bringing fancier dishes? Never fear. We asked V.I.P. Delia Ephron for advice on how to handle this and other tricky family situations.
