The point of telling you about my bottled water friend is that I took a stance of "my place, my rules" instead of bending to her (IMO unreasonable) demands. Tap water is probably perfectly okay to drink, but even I will filter it in my Brita pitchers before drinking it, just to add a layer of purity. But that is not good enough for her? What exactly does she think she is getting in her bottled water? FILTERED TAP. Its freakin water, okay? Remember, I am a man who has learned how to evaporate urine to purify it for drinking! Im not going to cowtow to some demand for bottled water.
The couple and the unused kitchen...dead giveaway for eat-outers. Just LOL! My kitchen is clean, but one look at my pans and utensils tells you I use them all a LOT. My spices are all opened and in various levels of empty. That is the other clue...unopened spices and packages of old pasta which were never opened.
Or, no olive oil (or worse, an unopened bottle, with dust on it). Tell them that they are making it inconvenient to serve them dinner, and tell them why. Be honest with the picky one and tell him that he is being unreasonable.

). No wedding cake??? It was awful. It was two years ago and their non-vegan friends are still hating on that experience! They took a picture of each other feeding a celery stick with dip on it (her in her wedding dress, him dressed as groom). The silly part of it is that they had a dog, and the dog got sick from eating a vegan dog diet so they had to put it up for adoption. I also ask guests about gluten or nut allergies. I do not use dairy milk and all my milk is nut based. But I do use heavy cream in cooking and sometimes in a pinch I will go half water/half cream.
