WBF - tell them of your food issues immediately. I have tried to inform retreat coordinators at least 2 to 3 weeks in advance, and have never had any issues. But if they can't do something special for you, ask to bring your own food. We have a friend who always brings his own food to church...

Our family is a mix of full names and nick names. :D In my dad's family, a baby would be named for a relative (historical or living), so a nick name sometimes was a big help in knowing who was being spoken to or called. :) My mom's name was Margaret and she never introduced herself as Peggy...
