Yet more unseemly squee:

We have the prettiest napkins. And a peppermill. (We didn't have a peppermill!) And a Japanese paper lamp.

The problem is that I don't know how to send thank-you cards to the people who've given us gifts, as the site doesn't store that information. Good for credit card security, bad for accurate gratitude. *facepalms* Nobody tells me anything. My wife never tells me anything.

...And we have the loveliest silver-gilt-trimmed thank-you cards, too.

Is it generally thought that muffin tins are sexist? *wonders* We were discussing this.


[livejournal.com profile] shirei_shibolim, I'd like a canning jar of bread starter as a wedding present, please. You may bring the gurgling, burping little mass of sourdough ooze right to the ceremony. (I'll make special provisions for feeding it on the honeymoon.) What could be better than loaves in perpetuity?

Wha? How would muffin tins be sexist? Doesn't everyone like muffins? Unless you're, like, allergic to wheat...

Bread starter? For some reason that makes me cry.

I knew this would work. If you don't know what present to buy, just wait til all the other ones have been taken. 'Cuz I wanted to buy a peppermill, but I couldn't decide.

Well, there is more than one peppermill on there. Or you could get us more than one peppermill of the kind you wanted to get.

Why does bread starter make you cry?

You still didn't explain about the muffins!

It's ok about the peppermill, I'll get something equally great.

Bread starter something something cooking tradition family memories/hopes poignant.

It's possible that, upon asking me why nobody'd yet gotten us the muffin tin off of our registry, I jokingly said that perhaps people saw muffin tins as sexist. I don't pretend to understand my brain.
