[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That you are supposed to give a hostess gift when you go to someone's house. I grew up middle class, and the only people we ever entertained were lower middle class family. I learned this in college. Extremely embarrassing. [/quote] I'm fifty and just learned this right now. None of my middle class / lower middle class family and friends did this [/quote] I don't think this is a class thing. Maybe a regional thing? Where I am from all the working class and middle class families do hostess gifts. Usually something simple or homemade (a plant, jam, pickles, something crafty if you are good at that, something religious if it is a church person) but you never show up empty-handed to someone's house.[/quote]
