The Gifts they have given

These are from JB and her hubbie.

For our wedding:
A cordless iron and 2 folding chairs.
Not nice ones, just ordinary ones.
The cordless iron was the iron itself. You sit it in a base to heat up, then use it then put it back in the base and wait for it to get hot again. (We got both parts, point is, it was AC operated, not battery operated.)

Other times:

A weight watcher's cookbook. At a time when I was about 130 lbs and MIL was about 300 lbs.

Used Tupperware

Items retrieved from her Mother's attic after her Mother died. (This is what she gave everybody, and bragged about it.)

A block of wood that had been painted and had various dollar-store figures superglued to it. There was no scene created, it was pretty random. This is what FIL gave everybody two years in a row (not two years ago, as I posted, he was already underground 2 years ago) (pictures)

A hollowed-out tree stump that had been painted gray with a plant pot in it with some sort of strange vine.

A mail box (really!)

More used Tupperware

Potholders

A photo mug of hubbie's adult niece.

A cookbook from a fundraiser for drug abuse prevention. The strange thing about this cookbook is that the first section was beverages and had quite a few of the alcoholic kind in it.
