Super helpful. I know it’s not super close to highland park but Incase it might be helpful to someone, at Coit and Campbell I’m fat north Dallas there is a sugar free bakery (they have ALL kinds of foods and sweets) called Sugarless Delight and there is also a vegan bakery called Reverie.

As someone that is gluten-free, I always try to give a heads up to the hostess (even if she is a friend) in case she isn’t aware, and never make a big deal about it if I can’t eat something.
My friend recently made me my very own mini gluten free key lime pie for a dinner party we had, because she had made regular key lime pie for everyone else. It was so kind of her to go through the extra trouble, and the gesture made me feel included and cared for. Thanks for the tips from both sides, as we will probably all find ourselves in either one or both of these positions at some point!

Love how Lisa commented that it’s just another way to love those around us well! As someone with food allergies, I appreciate this post and how to handle it graciously from both sides! It can be an awkward thing to navigate!

Well my husband cooked this Supper Club and he made very traditional fare: homemade French onion soup, beef tenderloin, pork tenderloin, twice baked potatoes, and an amazing Gorgonzola salad. He cut off a piece of the tenderloin for my friend before he marinated it and we set aside some salad for her without cheese and she brought her own dressing.

Yes! I need to do a post on that – thanks for the idea! I typically rent a table or two if I’m having a seated dinner. It’s not very expensive to do that and I just borrow chairs or rent a few extra if I don’t have enough. This time I used my dining room table (8-10 people) and rented a 60″ round (8-10) and put them both in my dining room. Even though it was tight I think people like being all in the same room. I also like to entertain in the spring/early summer when we can sit outside and have more room to spread out. I’ll think of some more tips and wrote a post!

That’s right Lisa! All such great points!

As a mother of a child with a severe peanut allergy, I just want to know she is safe and having fun when she gets together with her friends. A quick phone call before a party or play date puts everyone at ease! I am always happy to pack my daughter a lunch or bring her a special treat so she doesn’t feel left out when the cake is served. However, quite honestly, kids with food allergies tend to toughen up early and realize they can’t have every treat their friends offer them. I like to think of this as character building 🙂 Thanks for reminding us of another way we can love those around us well!
