Dinner Party Drama: Frittata Fiasco ️
Our dinner party host had planned a mouth-watering menu featuring two types of frittatas, but things took a turn when a guest requested a plain frittata for her 4-year-old picky eater. The host, already short on time and ingredients, declined the request, leading to an offended guest and a no-show at the party. Looking back, the host feels guilty, realizing they could have made a simple alternative like scrambled eggs, but didn’t want to go out of their way. With the guest struggling with childcare and work, they might have been relying on the host for dinner. So, was our host in the wrong? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
