(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.  |
1) Get them the saucepan, and don't feel guilty about it. They asked for it.
2) A pickle maker??
