no meat, no wheat, please...

my diet does not include meat or wheat products. what would you tell a host or hostess who inquires about what you eat when attending dinner at their home? last night i attended the first of 3 t'giving dinners i am going to this week (ugh!), and i did tell the hostess that i do not eat meat, because she specifically asked in an email she sent me. i did not mention that i don't eat wheat, because i didn't want to be difficult. well, when dinner was served, she had made these special tarts for me and the other vegetarian. i could not eat it because it had stuffing and was made with a pastry crust. i am now wondering if it would have been better to mention the wheat thing. but i would feel terrible if someone felt compelled to make me something totally different than everyone else-thanksgiving is enough work without "special requests", right? please give me some advice on how to respond to the other 2 hosts i will be responding to today. thanks!
