So, super hideous Mardi Gras scarf?
Was not well received. She just kind of was like "ohh, thanks" and stared at it, and I didn't know what to say so I just said "I made it!" and she goes "I know, Beth". Um, ok. At least my mom really liked hers and now my sister wants one, so I'll make her a non-ugly version for her birthday next month.
ETA: I should add that this was not her only present. We also gave her a print she wanted (of New Orleans, of course) and a Macy's giftcard. So it wasn't like that was the only thing she got.

I mean I don't expect people to fall over themselves when they open something I made, and I know some people are "weird" about homemade gifts, but geez louise! And yeah, I was glad my sister asked for one. That made me feel better. Considering she actually dresses nice, haha.

I wasn't sure until after they left and SIL was all "WTF was with her reaction when she opened the scarf?" So yeah, people noticed. Oh well. Weirdo. She also farted REALLY LOUD in the kitchen later on, so HAHA.

Cali, that reminds me:
A few weeks before Christmas, she calls Tim and says "Your father just bought himself a new computer. Hope that doesn't screw up your Christmas plans." Um, yes, because we're in the habit of buying our parents $1000 Christmas gifts. Thanks for ruining everything.

Your MIL is weird. After all the crap you have had to deal with (trolls and all), she could have at least least feigned liking the scarf which you made in mardi gras colors, because you know how much she loves NOLA.
I probably would have walked out of the room if that was the reaction I got, but you showed much better restraint than I.
I've been thinking about her response ALL DAY, and trying to come up with ways I can zing my H with it in daily conversation ( I won't call him beth, I will use his given name.)
how deliciously weird!
I made it!
I KNOW, beth. (was there an implied " and you did a great job!" or maybe "and I love it even more for that fact!" or was it like you were annoying her by persisting with the bringing it up?)
let's snuggle!
