A flat computer automated voice comes on and states in monotone:
"This is the voicemail box for Allison Hargreeves. Leave a message at the beep."

[ And the time of year, like right now. And whether it even existed where she was, like in Dallas, and in this place. ]
Cookies usually go over well, and there are a lot of Christmas varieties out there. Mints, and candy cane, and gingerbread, etc. There's a little coffee shop and patisserie Harry and I went to from time to time. I could give them a call and see if they do catering dozens, too.

Should we bring anything else besides contributing to the snacks? Like, Christmas presents? Is that a thing people do even if they don't know each other all that well?
[ What is the etiquette! He does not know! Even the Hargreeves hadn't gifted each other anything last year, even when it was all of them. ]

Host gifts are a normal thing, and holiday gifts for friends.
But if you don't know him well enough to have any idea what to get, it's probably fine to come without, too, since you will still be bringing something for the tables. If it bugs you not to, you could always try to pay attention to what he talks about that night and send a gift afterward, between the dinner and Christmas itself.

Try to remember he's a friend. Not a mission.

And-- thanks, for being up for it. I'll pass on the info once I get a more specific address, time, and date.
[ Still sounds a bit like a mission, but at least less than before? ]
no subject
Sure. I'll keep thinking on it and tell you when I get home if I come up with anything else.
