To insist that a cookery book should be a joint present for DD1 and her DF?

DP does his fair share of cooking, he is certainly doing all the wrapping due to me being rubbish at it. He just put the recipe book I bought in DD1s pile, when it was entirely meant as a joint present for DD1 and her fiance. We are well aware that DF treats DD very well and does more than his share around the home, so I have no idea why such an assumption would be made.

He has not argued with me when I told him he was wrong, btw, just moved the book between their two piles (from santa).

I see what you are saying, but if they live together then it will be a joint present anyway, so I am not sure that there was a great need to make the point.

But then, I am tired, cranky and couldn't give a fuck what presents end up in what pile in our house tonight. :o

I have no idea what would make the correct assumption that I am drunk.

DP was going to wrap it up to DD. So DD sould have had one more present that her DF. It was so meant for both of them, as I assume it will be used by both of them!

wannabe, I feel your pain, you don't care who has what as long as everyone has something they cannot complain about!

I agree, I do not want my DD to have something to complain about in years to come!

YANBU . The present is for both of them so it must be labelled as such surely . Xmas Smile
