    food allergies.....ask or tell?

    1. I tend to ask a generic “Any food restrictions?” if I have never entertained the invitees before. Most common I have come across is no meat. With close personal friends, I tend to know before the invitation. I have...

    ever wish you could lower your food standards?

    as justify — after all, it’s sorta like throwing money in the toilet. sigh However, if I were happy living on cardboard bread, generic gouda/American cheese “product”, or Hamburger helper, I might be able...

    Incensed with Whole Foods: Enough Incompetence!
