Dress Code
My younger cousin, who’s quite the aspiring Instagram model at 17, wanted to wear a white dress. But that situation was easier to swallow than my mother-in-law’s surprise.
She showed up unannounced with a collection of potted succulents, having heard there wouldn’t be any flowers! Meanwhile, I was standing there, baffled, with heaps of flowers that I had spent a small fortune on.
While I could’ve easily sorted out the white dress situation with my cousin, the unexpected arrival of a bunch of cacti left me utterly speechless. We’re still scratching our heads about that.
