[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell her to bring what she wants to eat. End of story. Complaining? "I'm hanging up now," and do it.[/quote]

Exactly, or say sure, you’re welcome to use my crockpot when you arrive.[/quote]

It’s rude to invite a guest and make food you know they won’t eat and then tell them to make food themselves.  Don’t host a party if you don’t have basic social graces.[/quote]

Huh? Basic social graces would be refraining from telling the person whom has invited you into their home and telling them what and what not to serve! That is the height of rudeness. [/quote]

It’s her mom, not an acquaintance from work FFS.  [/quote]

NP. Unless her mom owns the house or makes house payments, she's a G-U-E-S-T in OP's home, family or not. [/quote]

If your own mom can’t level with you and tell you when you’re being a shitty hostess, who else is going to tell you?

And guess what a GUEST should feel welcome, so you shouldn’t invite a GUEST and serve them a pile of crap.[/quote]

Context, people. If it's a 70-year-old's retirement party, then yes, let's expect some adult food. For a four-year-old's birthday? Yeah, it might be hot dogs, mac and cheese. Are you that...hungry that you can't be pleasant with a non-ideal menu for two hours?[/quote]
