The plot thickens.

We're attending the engagement party tomorrow. We are sending them something from their registry. They registered for a lot of kitchenware (they registered at Williams-Sonoma among other places) so we got them a nice saucepan. (We're annoyed by the situation, but the groom is a friend, and we have no intention of stiffing him. Plus they wouldn't have invited us if they didn't want us there ... kinda like being invited to pref and being on the second bid list.)

We heard from my MIL earlier today. Apparently, she got a call from MOG, who got a call from her son whining that too many people had bought pots and pans from their registry, and what they really wanted was cash. (Translation: Give us a check - preferably a large one - as our wedding gift.) So ... um ... why register for a sh*tload of kitchenware, including a pasta machine and a pickle maker???

Yeah... they're getting another saucepan for the wedding.
