I think I pissed off a lady from church

A few days ago, I got a phone call from a lady from church asking me if I can bring some food for a dinner in a few weeks. I said sure, no problem. She asked if I'd rather make chicken or salad. I said salad since I've usually got lots of fresh veggies in the house and am not much of a meat-eater. She told me that she would email me the recipe. Now, I thought that was weird that anyone would need a recipe for salad. So yesterday, I got the recipe in my email and it was a calorie-disaster consisting of iceburg lettuce, frozen peas, hard boiled eggs, 2 cups of miracle whip and bacon bits. All I can say about that is EW!!! That's just about the grossest thing I've ever heard of. If I'm going to eat food that bad for me, I'd like to eat something that tastes good (like brownies.) I don't even like miracle whip or mayonnaise or even ranch dressing for that matter. When I think salad, I think about a nice bowl of spring mix with maybe some radishes, tomatoes and various other veggies thrown in. You know, salad. So I sent her an email back asking if I can just bring a regular tossed salad 'cuz I can't eat that. She called me back today and said that she gave my food assignment to someone else and asked if I would be okay with bringing chicken instead. I asked if all the food was like that and she said yes. They were having chicken, that salad, rolls and cake. I asked if there would be any regular salad and she said no. I said the salad sounded gross and she said it was her recipe. I think I pissed her off. I think I might have to tell her that I have a sudden trip to Uzbekistan and won't be able to go to the dinner. I'm not eating that food. I'm considering becoming a vegetarian just so I can get out of eating that stuff.
