[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I say this as a courtesy but not because I’m hoping to bring anything. I will of course show up with a hostess gift and if asked to bring something I will. I think it’s impolite to ask guests to bring anything to a party you are hosting but I also think it’s impolite so show up empty handed. Lol. I’m not sure I helped. Sorry! I hope you enjoy your party![/quote] This. I think its rude to ask people to bring stuff. Just tell them that they are not required to bring anything. Honestly, the best way to learn about customs/cultures is to see it. Let them show up how they choose. If they notice that other people have brought food, they'll know for next time. But it's strange to assume that the white family - currently living in the US - should conform to other customs. Why is that required if you don't care if they bring something? I say this as a hispanic married to an Arab. I would never tell anyone to bring a dish. [/quote]
