[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not allowed to go in the kitchen between meals.  My 10 year old went in and was rummaging around looking for a snack and the host threw a fit.  [/quote]

Wow. You allowed your child to rummage through your host's kitchen w/o express permission from the host to do so?  That's pretty bad  :shock: .[/quote]

+1. That is a HUGE no-no. Even if it is your own parents or siblings (or DH equivalent), but especially if it is anyone more removed than that. [/quote]

No, it’s not.  My guests are offered free reign to the kitchen and pantry.  I make sure to stock up on things I know my guests like.  I want everyone to feel at home.[/quote]

Hi there. Not everyone is you. My MIL/FIL do not allow people to take food from their house without asking. Might as well double-check with your hosts as to their preferences. [/quote]

Not everyone is selfish like your in laws.  [/quote]

That's exactly right. The world is, indeed, made up of all kinds of people. Which is why well-mannered, thoughtful people ask first to make sure they know what their hosts are comfortable with. [/quote]

Which is why if you are going to host, you make sure your guests feel comfortable.  If your kitchen is such a temple, don’t host.[/quote]
