On a related note, when my mom turned 40 none of us knew what to do... Pretend nothing happened? Make a big deal? So we ended up doing nothing. Except for my sister, who gave her a special rock from her rock collection. So my mom's only 40th birthday gift was a rock. ?
A head of iceberg lettuce.
A semi-thoughtful gift from my dad I guess, since I used to eat it by the handful while watching after school cartoons, but it was definitely an underwhelming gift to open.
I decided that the best way to keep from going bridezilla was to prepare myself emotionally for one thing going very very wrong. When the cake showed up looking nothing like what I had ordered I thought to myself "well, there it is!" and just rolled on.
Last Holiday. Always makes me appreciate life, focus on what's important, and laugh. Also, best line ever: "you and I know the secret to life... Butter!"
