How nice for YOU.  The last baby naming I went to was at MY HOME, where we served quality food, good champagne, and hired a high schooler to entertain the preschool/toddlers during the ceremony.  We had 75-80 people.  I can easily imagine it cost around $3k.  Not everyone is satisfied with grocery store bagels and lox.[/quote]
I think pp was just describing one perfectly reasonable way that it could be done cheaply.  You sound offended somehow.[/quote]

+1. What is with the offense?  Weird. [/quote]

+1. This is DC urban moms-many of us don’t have a backyard and many families don’t have the means to have expensive food for 80 people.  It seems to me that the PP bragging about the event has lost sight of the religious nature of the event.   It’s not an occasion that requires showing off.[/quote]
