[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t like poinsettias. Every year, my mom arrives with a poinsettia for me and then acts surprised that I don’t like it.  I have told her repeatedly that I don’t like them. This year she brought me three small ones because she couldn’t find a big one like usual. Hooray. [/quote]

My in laws don’t like dogs and every year I tell my MIL we have to keep the poinsettia she gives us out of reach and every year she puts it on the floor for “just a minute while I ________” we call it her annual attempted murder (and don’t worry we watch her like a hawk so we know when to get the dog out of the room)[/quote]

Ooooh yeah we had this growing up with cats. My grandmother (mom’s mom) was afraid of and didn’t like cats. Lillies and poinsettias are very toxic to cats. What did grandma give us, a family with 2 cats, every Christmas and Easter? A poisonous to cats plant. My mom used to have to keep them (the plants, not the cats!) in the upstairs bathroom with the door closed. [/quote]
