Not always. This is the woman who I referred to in an old post about a
neighbour throwing a surprise party for her chef husband and asking her
to bring to roasted beef tenderloins and two pricey bottles of wine...
specified the wines. She backed out of it and another neighbour was
asked to bring the tenderloins.
