[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to think about improving communication with your guests before the event. I am sure it is usually the same 2-3 people who bring unsolicited food to events. You need to tell them beforehand that you do not want any food contribution. Problem solved. [/quote] That’s the funny thing—it’s really not the same people. And stranger still, it’s people who have been coming over for years, who (I promise you) suddenly start bringing things. Now that I think about it, maybe they are bringing it out of guilt for me hosting more frequently? I don’t mind this at all. We like having people over and definitely missed entertaining during COVID. I guess I will have to say flat-out beforehand not to bring food. It’s just weird that all of a sudden, people started bringing not your typical hostess gift of a bottle of wine or chocolates, but fussy appetizers that require time in the oven. -OP[/quote]
