These days, it's not so easy to decide what to bring or not bring. What if they have allergies to nuts or gluten? What if they're diabetic? What if they are recovering alcoholics? Maybe I should just stay home.

Guest Etiquette
It used to be (or at least in my family it was) that if you went to someones home for dinner, lunch or just a cup of coffee, it was good manners to bring a cake, either homemade or bakery shop made. Times changed a bit and a bottle of wine or a box of chocolates had become equally acceptable.

hmm, this could explain why people don't visit like they used to in the good old days
I bring something and leave it up to the host to decide if they want to serve it or not. It's crazy to have to try to figure out who can eat/drink what these days--it's the thought that counts, I say!!
You can come visit me anytime if you bring this!! :)
