My Generous Cousin Meredith

Finally my cousin Meredith was in Houston, where she lives, when I was there. The last few times I have gone to Houston she has been out of town. Usually she is at Roundtop which is one of her shopping meccas and that takes priority. As a non-shopper, I don’t understand shopping taking priority.

So not only was Meredith in town, she also came and took mah Jongg class and brought her friend Amy. They were superior students and can now play mah Jongg.

Not only did a Meredith pay to come to take class, but she brought me a very cute gift. It was this darlin’ Texas bag, with a boot charm and tassel, a smaller pink bandanna bag, a Texas shaped clip, a pink twilly, and a Texas wood cut out tag. It was like the “welcome to Texas” gift bag extraordinaire.

That was the gift the first day. Then the second day she showed up with two gifts for Kari and Nancy, who organized the classes and host me. They were lucite trays for hostess towels with mah Jongg towels and mah Jongg cocktail napkins. So cute.

Gift giving is definitely Meredith’s love language. I wish she could just be my personal shopper because she is by far the most superior gift giver I have ever known.

Then let’s gild the lily. Meredith took me to the airport after the farewell lunch. How else could she be the best cousin?
