Do you want to bring something to a party?

I am throwing a party this weekend and several people have asked me what they can bring. Many are not satisfied with the answer that they don’t have to bring anything. I have also been saying if you want to bring something bring your favorite drink if you would like, but also tell them what we will have available. Some still insist they want to bring food.

Honestly, I want to bring nothing to your party, unless it is specifically a potluck party. If I am helping you throw the party, then obviously I will bring whatever you need. Or, if it is BYOB, no problem, I don’t mind at all. But, my BYOB is Coke. When it is not BYOB, it is weird to show up with Coke as a gift.
