re: What were your most used wedding gifts?

We got a gravy boat from my cousin Ron (who I’ve always hated) and his wife Marcia. Never even opened it. 10 years later they come over for dinner and my wife wants to break it out. Turns out there was a check for $1500 hidden inside but it’s too old to cash it.

Long story short, I get them to write another check and they ask what we plan to do with it. We tell them we’ve always wanted to go to New Orleans and they say they have too and would like to go with us. We end up sneaking off and going without them and it ruined the whole thing.
