Good morning,the dinner was successful not.
Oh!the dinner was fine.My guest was supposed to bring desserts not.
I did not mentioned anything about it.Mike told me to keep quiet.Not
After clearing off the table and Bob said what for dessert?
I do not know ask your girlfriend as she puzzle looking at me.
You were suppose to bring dessert.Was I.yes you offer to do so.
Luckily I had a loaf of cranberry nut bread.We had this with whipped cream.
These people never bring anything.Another story.
Was I wrong in saying that you forgot the dessert?
She never apologize or anything.
We have friends for so many years.Time for her to wake up.
Mike was a little miffed but calm down saying your right.
The evening was not ruined as we all sat down and enjoy dessert and conversation.
We will be leaving for brunch soon.This will be much better.LOL

If they are truly good friends I see no problem saying something to her...now if they were just casual friends I probably would not mention it. Next time she says she will bring something tell her not to bother.....

I think that I would have said the same thing.
When a host or hostess is advised that they don't need to provide a certain dish or the end course in this instance, then you shouldn't disappoint.
I hope that you have a nice brunch out. I'll be making our brunch here in a little while.

I've never thought to try any nut breads with whipped cream. I like those type of breads just with butter. Another option would be to not offer any dessert. That may wake her up especially if she loves dessert. Then if she asked where the dessert was you could reply with the quizzical look she gave you and say something like: "Oh, I thought maybe you forgot and left it in your car".

I have friends that I visit now and then. Sometimes but not often, I'll take something. They are so nice, always offer me coffee and usually a little meal before I go. Such good friends, to tolerate me, who has almost zero social skills.

@amadeo How polite of you! I'd never make it in polite society! I don't know how I missed out on acquiring social skills. My mother was polite. She used to tell me before I'd go visit my little friends, "Act nice." Like I wasn't really nice and had to put on an act. Sigh, I guess she was right, once again.

That is sad that she didn't bring it when she said she would. Next time she offers to bring something I would stop everything and say ... are you sure you are able to bring it? If you really are then I will not make anything just in case. This way there is no question as to what you are expecting from her. this way she has no excuse of not hearing you or not saying she didn't know.
