ROFL! You've described EXACTLY what I go thru when I eat at relatives! Including when a couple of the hosts go in the kitchen and whisper and come out with this one dish, looking at *you* and they both start saying at the same time: Oh, can you have this? What in this can't you have? It has mushrooms. Are mushrooms oK? We weren't sure, so there's one without mushrooms too over there only for you.
Mushrooms?? you think. Pretty random considering the whole thing's covered in cheese...!
Then I have to sheepishly say, NO REALLY IT'S OK I can eat the stupid sequestered, lonely, small, dried out Sick Girl's dish WITHOUT the mushrooms (RANDOM!), then realizing it was cos I mentioned ONCE in passing that sauteed mushrooms have *tons* of butter, so I avoid them at all costs.
This is the sound of people mising the point!
It's sooo embarrasing to be put up for public social review. And they wonder why *WE* just can't relax!!
How about this scenerio instead: I picture a nice meal, eating with you Angela, and like 8 other people on this board, with Heather V. coming out of the kitchen with this big chef's hat and alllll of our favorites. And there's plenty of waer, and a beautiful candy dish of immodium on the table, and everybody happy and NOT talking about food!!!!!!!!
Sorry for the long post. I'm sorry you had to go through that scenerio alone. I was with you in spirit, tho!!!
All my best,
~nelly~
