[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow.  These responses are hilarious -- The guests are fat anyway! This is how Europeans do it! Bring crackers in your pocket! Cake for dinner is fine!

You are being cheap. Your guests notice. They are annoyed. If you don't care how they feel, they shouldn't be your guests.

I totally agree. And I will say that there is one family that we know that is so cheap and so inhospitable at occasions like these that it has made us not want to be friends with them at all. They keep asking to hang out and we keep turning them down. Makes me think of those threads here where people wonder why they don't have friends or why people always turn them down. Maybe they are like these "friends" of ours that invite us to birthday parties in their home and serve no food. Or invite us over to dinner but turn it everything into a potluck, assigning us a main dish to bring.

This type of hosting is a real turn-off for me and reveals a lot about these peoples' character. If you do not want to take care of your guests, make them feel comfortable, welcome, well-fed, then I do not want to be your friend.

Also, I am American but have lived in many countries. This is the ONLY place in the world I have seen this sort of behavior. [/quote]
