@Star 's mother certainly was offering me endless homemade treats when I went around there many years ago. And when I apologised about not eating any of it, she brought me chocolate digestives on her best china instead.
Where are you though?Where I am, there’s traditionally been an assumption you’ll have eaten or had a drink before visiting someone’s house.
Hence the phrase said to guests “You’ll have had your tea” i.e. I won’t be feeding you.
I've got a friend whose family is from Gujarat (I want to say a town beginning with B, but I've forgotten the name of it), and she makes these DELICIOUS little sweet snacks with fennel seeds in them. She loves baking, so whenever she makes anything for work, she'll always bring a portion of those for me as I'm rubbish about most other things.My mum would feed anyone who turned up at the door. We had a very similar upbringing to @Beverley
Shame I'm so rubbish with food, it'll be a packet of crisps round mine!
That's what I say when I can't be arsed and plonk baked beans on toast in front of Mr L for lunch.Cooking for people is one of my absolute favourite things to do, its the ultimate act of love. Not only are you bringing people pleasure through sensory delight, you're keeping them alive.
