[quote=Anonymous]Can you renegotiate? "Happy to do it. Our space will limited though, so if it is all the same to you, we will being something non-perishable, like wine and (bread product)." I don't think it is terribly strange. They are not putting themselves in your shoes, FOR SURE, but some families are more "potluck" driven and think it is fun. They may be giving you no-fail items or wanting to be sure to include you. If you ask for a swap out, at least you know what the expectation is. We are visiting someone just for dessert (they make great pies and cookies) to I offered wine and ice cream (to top it) but that's because I have a short trip. I once made a cassarole for this group and i thought it was lame (not "foodie" food) and they asked me to make it every time I go to something with their family. It was a warm compliment. [/quote]
