[QUOTE="DDD, post: 604277, member: 35"] Why not send a note and say "We are eager to have you as a dinner guest but I need to be sure that I don't violate your dietary options. Would grilled salmon, a baked potato and fresh steamed vegetables suit you? What's your very favorite dessert? We are ALL looking forward to sharing time with you...just let me know." DDD Your post, by the way, made me smile. I had a very special young friend (my children's live in babysitter after my divorce) who reached out much to my happy delight. I responded with a dinner invitation which she accepted and then she added "we don't eat meat". I bought very expensive Key West king sized shrimp as the main course and OMG they did not eat seafood either. The VERY funny part of the story is that I made steamed fresh beans and a package of instant potatoes and she shared with her financee "DDD was a wonderful cook even when she was 30...and she NEVER used premade products! Aren't her homemade potatoes awesome?" Without exaggeration, lol, that happened in the late 70's and I remember the dinner as if it were yesterday. The moral?
