No Kidding!!!! Yeesh, some people!

How ever much chutzpah it took for the chef's wife to ask that person
what she did, it still reminds me of the time we hosted an xmas season
party that included close neighbors and long time friends. People
called to ask what they could bring.... I'd been to dinner at my
across the street neighbor's a few times and eaten her scrumptious
turkey at least twice (the stuffing had chervil in it and I couldn't
get enough of it). Well, she asked what she could bring and I
jokingly said "Turkey". She said yes immediately! I was shocked
(embarrassed for saying it - because I expected her to turn me down,
albeit good naturedly) and told her I was just joking, but she
insisted on bringing the turkey - and she did. I'll never forget that
act of pure generosity.
