The holidays are quickly approaching and that means the sometimes obligatory visits to see people who you'd rather add as your facebook friend than see live in and person. "Hey! Just thinking about you mother in law! Glad you sent me a request!" That's it, social interaction complete.
But Facebook has yet to create an app for the dreaded and awkward Thanksgiving dinner at the in laws. Thus, we are subjected to face to face backdoor compliments such as "Did you lose weight? Every time I see you, you re thinner!" Or not so in your face, like "You're my only hope for grandchildren" i.e. said while you're standing there but not directly to you.
Anyway, here are a few products to help you survive that family food festival and be able to give thanks for that long awaited train or car ride back to your own house.
Graey Online Boutique, Flask Purse
Excuse yourself to go the restroom. Its normal for girls to take their purse with them. No one will suspect a thing while your sitting on the toilet, fully clothed with the door locked and chugging down your "magic toleration liquid."
Button on Napkin System, Ett la Ben
Don't wipe your hands on the festive brocade turkey linens, you'll ruin them. But why are they on the table then? Don't try to decipher why there are napkins on the table that you cant use. Bring your own. Oh, don't eat that fruit in the silver bowl centerpiece. Its plastic.
Johnathan Adler Shoe Butter Dish
Remember when President Bush dodged a shoe thrown by an Iraqi man? If the aforementioned tactics fail to keep the peace, borrow this Arab world insult and "accidentally" launch this dish when the mother in law asks you to pass the butter.
I want the flask purse...lol...love it!!!
