[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I often bring something because there are a lot of foods I can’t eat. I bring enough for the party but if the host seems like they will be annoyed, I will just leave it in a bag, and find ways to discreetly eat some before or after dinner or on the way home so that I am not hungry all evening. [/quote] As a nut allergy parent, I get it, but even my 7yo and 9yo know that we *eat beforehand* if we’re not sure what types of food will be served at a gathering. That way, my girls can eat a bit of what they can eat, but if there’s not much, they don’t go hungry. And yes, I ask if I can bring anything. And if I’m told to bring “just yourselves,” I respect that, and I don’t roll up with food in a “discreet bag.” :roll: I always bring a host/hostess gift, but it is not something to set out, it is for the hosts to enjoy.
