[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone please explain why when you extend an invitation to me, I am suddenly obligated to go find you some fancy soaps or local chocolates? Why can't I send you a nice thank you note and include you the next time at my expense and effort.[/quote] Of course you can. That is the most proper. But for those whose style isn't to follow up with a written thank you or weren't taught that as being proper prefer to do it on the spot with a small hostess gift. Especially those who are unlikely to reciprocate with a return invitation. It just is. I will only reiterate my earlier point that whatever gift people choose it isn't something your host has to drop everything to put in a vase or platter or open wine that doesn't match the food or add in a stray dish that would disrupt the menu.[/quote]
