There have been other times when we didn't light, either because we were included in someone else's bracha, like my mother, who is very possessive about these things - regards it as a diss for someone else to light in her home; or because we physically couldn't, like in the hospital when Debbie's father had emergency surgery - on that occasion, we benched on an electric ceiling light.
But this was the first time we can think of, where she just forgot, to do it herself, or to ask to be included in our hostess' lighting.
