If not wine, bring flowers.

Believe it or not, there are actually still some people in this world who don't make everything about sex.

I wouldn't bring dessert since she may have already prepared one and then, she will feel compelled to serve yours. If you don't want to bring a bottle of wine, some cute Halloween napkins or other paper cocktail napkins are always useful and appreciated. A holiday smelling candle for this time of year is also an easy good neutral gift.

I ran into my elementary school teacher from like 15 years ago, and she and her husband invited me to dinner with their three kids. I'm probably overthinking this, but I have to bring something, right? I don't know much about wine... Do I bring wine? With three kids under 10, wine may not be the right call. I have no idea. Help.
This is weird as frick.

Bring either a hot lady dummy in red, a vulture, a cape, or a mouse shadow box

Met my old teacher in the grocery store
The snow was falling Christmas Eve
I stood behind her in the frozen foods
And I touched her on the sleeve
She didn't recognize the face at first
But then her eyes flew open wide
She went to hug me and she spilled her purse
And we laughed until we cried
We took her groceries to the check out stand
The food was totaled up and bagged
We stood there lost in our embarrassment
As the conversation lagged
We went to have ourselves a drink or two
But couldn't find an open bar
We bought a six-pack at the liquor store
And we drank it in her car
We drank a toast to innocence
We drank a toast to now
We tried to reach beyond the emptiness
But neither one knew how
She said she's married her an architect
Who kept her warm and safe and dry
She would have liked to say she loved the man
But she didn't like to lie
I said the years had been a friend to her
And that her eyes were still as blue
But in those eyes I wasn't sure if I saw
Doubt or gratitude
She said she saw me in the record stores
And that I must be doing well
I said the audience was heavenly
But the traveling was Hell
We drank a toast to innocence
We drank a toast to now
We tried to reach beyond the emptiness
But neither one knew how
We drank a toast to innocence
We drank a toast to time
Reliving, in our eloquence
Another "Auld Lang Syne"
The beer was empty and our tongues were tired
And running out of things to say
She gave a kiss to me as I got out
And I watched her drive away
Just for a moment I was back at school
And felt that old familiar pain
And, as I turned to make my way back home
The snow turned into rain

Why not ask the Food board?

Chocolate Bobka.
Or Pepsi and Ring Dings.

Bottle of wine and some sippy cups

Bring a mask for your face, you will be on the Internet in about twelve minutes
When you walk in and all the kids have magically gone to other engagements, just drop your pants.

Bring him scotch, her flowers (and a bottle of white), and the kids something cool learning related. Maybe some sort of brain game.

I don't think he said this was in Destrehan.

This situation is my nightmare. Not the 'not knowing what to bring aspect', but somehow getting trapped into dinner with basically strangers and their kids. Hell, I don't even like eating dinner with my girlfriend's parents, and I know I'm getting laid afterwards for just showing up.

Small toys for the kids.

I agree with the others. This has swinger written all over it.

Pepsi. It's cheaper than wine
