‘Really? Beans?’ she said of my prize-winning chili. I won’t be inviting her again.
During the particularly dark and dreary days of winter, I invited two couples to our home for an evening of chili and board games.One of the couples — both the husband and the wife — took time separately to ask me if I was seriously planning to serve beans when they came over. I tried to explain to the wife that it was my award-winning chili and that she would, hopefully, love it.
The only exception is if there is a dietary condition that must be accommodated. Am I right, or am I being overly sensitive?Having declared your menu ahead of time, you were under no obligation to change it based on your friends’ critique. If they did not wish to eat beans, they could have declined. But Miss Manners agrees with your determination not to give them that chance.My friend and I both have babies.
