[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe I'm old, but I believe in the "never come empty handed" rule. That almost always means wine, but sometimes I bring food -- which I fully expect the host NOT to serve that night and which could go straight in the garbage if that's what the host prefers. It's a gift -- the host can do with it what she pleases. I truly don't see how you couldn't find a use for these items, though, OP -- cheese can be served anytime or used in cooking, have the blueberries for breakfast and the pasta salad for lunch. What is the big deal?[/quote] NP. It's not a big deal, I think even OP knows that. But, yeah, it's annoying. I like my fridge a certain way, and when it is chock-a-block around the holidays or what have you, it drives me a bit bonkers. Plus, you're assuming OP and her family like every single leftover. Two-day-old pasta salad doesn't appeal to everyone.[/quote]
