Doesn't sound like it's worth getting upset about. She might not even have noticed the toy was opened. Sometimes things are like that at the store or maybe her kid got into it or husband started assembling it not knowing it wasn't for their DD and she didn't have time to get something else.
Also that's nice of her to pack up food for your LO! I'm always all frazzled at my DS's parties and would never have thought to pack up food for anyone let alone try to figure out how much they would need to feed their entire family. You could have packed your own up like she did at yours if you were worried about not getting enough.
TBH I'm a bit put off by you calling a 1 year old's birthday party lame, lol. It's probably the first birthday party she's thrown for a baby so I'd cut her some slack!
Ok, you have judged me pretty much so let me clarify point by point.
1. She handed that gift without any wrap or bag. Anybody just looking at it could get that it was opened. The parts inside were loose and making noise. A blind or deaf person couldn't have noticed that.
2. She didn't at all pack food for my lo. Try to read the original post properly first...Please! That food was for me as I did not have time to eat. I could have got the food packed for myself 'as she did' if I knew this person for more than 2/3 weeks. I am not that begged to get the food from almost a stranger. She did not pack those slices for me someone else suggested her.
3. I will definitely call a party LAME if you r calling 75 people in a 1bedroom apartment with a seating for 6 on a week night where 90% of guest r struggling to reach even by 8:30PM.
I think this should clear your doubts abt me.
This does clear a lot up but unfortunately not in your favour.
If she had seventy-five people to feed (which I'm guessing must be an exaggeration on your part as I don't think 75 people would even physically fit in an average 1 bedroom apartment), I'm guessing it cost quite a lot to feed everyone. The fact that she gave you anything is lovely in that case. I wouldn't ever expect someone to feed me if I wasn't staying long enough to eat there. Since she's not from your area perhaps she isn't aware of your oddly specific customs regarding sending people away with certain amounts of food.
And calling a party lame because it was in a one bedroom apartment and on a weeknight? Really? It just sounds like you're grasping at things to nitpick over. Maybe you should print out everything you've said in this thread and show it to her, I think it will be pretty effective in ensuring that she doesn't associate with you anymore.
