[quote=Anonymous] Goodness, you seem to be burdened with one CLUELESS set of relatives! Don't they see that the recipient would want some say in that kind of gift? They all sound awful, apart from the (hopefully genuine Bavarian) cuckoo clock. I would consign or donate them all ASAP, and if they ask, tell them that they weren't to your taste. It's the only way you'll stop receiving such things! Look them straight in the eye in the most innocent way and say in a pleasant voice: "Oh, it didn't fit our lifestyle, so we gave it away!" As if it was the most normal thing in the world. Then maybe you'll find a post entitled "My SIL was so offensive today!" on DCUM. But at least the gifts will stop :-)[/quote]
