update on lingerie at your shower...

Some of you may remember my desire not to receive lingerie at my shower. (I know, to relive my ridiculousness in all its glory, read this.)

Well, I was out to dinner with my MOH and 2 of my BMs Saturday night. Something related came up and I actually said, 'Oh yeah, btw, PLEASE don't buy me lingerie or anything like that for my shower!' And I explained the whole thing. They laughed and said they wouldn't... but no joke that one girl actually said, 'You mean no fuzzy handcuffs?' (Read the ot her thread, you'll get it -- but I think she was kidding and either way - no, no fuzzy handcuffs will show up at the shower!)

My MOH suggested having a lingerie party at her house - just the close girlfriends. I'm not having a bachelorette party (don't want one!), so I guess this is her substitute idea. I think it's a cute idea, so I'll go with it. At least this way anything I do buy, I can pick out. LOL. So it's now a lingerie and passion party... Oh my! Hey, like I said on the other thread, I'm not a prude, I just don't want other people picking this stuff out for me, nor do I want to open in a room full of women including my FMIL, aunts, mom, etc.

So it should be fun and I think it was a really good solution, not that any of them were planning to get me lingerie anyway.

Oh, but you'll appreciate this. The fuzzy handcuffs friend said 'Oooh! oooh! Can I make a penis cake?' I just rolled my eyes. My MOH said, 'Well, I'll make lots of food, and I'll make good food... but I'm not making penis food. If you want penis food, you'll have to make your own.' Oh dear... I think we settled for cupcakes with penis sprinkles (that I didn't know they made)... But hey if penis sprinkles will make her happy...

That is a funny story! I am the same way... Didn't want any lingerie at my shower, but my friends/family aren't those type of people so I wasn't too worried about it.
Well I was wrong because I did end up with a whole box of lingerie and you are never going to believe who it was from.... My MIL!!!!! She even made me hold it up so everyone could see it
I was so embarrassed!
I hope that you don't end up with a horror story like that!
Good luck!

I have thought about that exact scenario. I highly doubt my FMIL would do that, as she's extremely conservative (her father left the Amish!)... but it's a fear I have.

I could do without the penis sprinkles... but it'll give her SOMETHING to do. It'll be fun... not what I had in mind, but they were all so excited about it, I figured why not.
