Ok - first AIBU but hoping this isn't a particularly flammable one...

We moved into our current house in the summer and our new next door neighbours seem very nice. They have a DD quite close to our DD's age, and have been friendly without being pushy. They are coming over for a cuppa and a chat on Sunday afternoon, which should be great.

Now my (v trivial) AIBU stems from a text from the woman neighbour earlier saying "By the way I am on a diet so please don't offer me any biscuits."

I found this a bit odd and am not sure if I am being U or not. It feels a bit like we are being expected to police another adult's food intake, which I find a bit strange for a start. Plus I kind of think it means we can't offer round any biscuits or cake etc. (as would be pointedly excluding her albeit only in front of our family and her own DH and DD) and I'm mildly annoyed at the feeling of being told what I can and can't do in my own home.

However, she has shown no bizarre tendencies so far in our acquaintance, plus I do have a tendency to overthink things and think a cuppa on a Sunday afternoon is incomplete without a nibble so AIBU?
