Reply To: How do you tell a good friend you no longer want to eat at their home?

get a life: I wish it were that easy and I dont think it is so far for me to go hungry on Shabbos. This persons daughter invited us a couple of weeks ago to her house. I noticed that she had all her food(with gravy) on a hot plate (which was not covered with aluminum foil). She even said something about how some people say it must be covered, others dont( I did not ask anything, she started the conversation). She also insulated everything with towels. I tried to eat the dips and hummus and stuff and I stayed away from the chicken. I was at least looking forward to the apple pie I brought her, but she ended up putting it on the hot plate so I didnt have it either. I hope it was good…and I was still hungry.
