Gathering with yourfamily memberscan be exciting for many reasons.
Or you might just be excited to find out whats been hiding in Moms china cabinet!
First, we wanted to know what inspired her to share this tale online.
I had to tell someone!
My sisters can only handle so much of my excitement, so I turned to Reddit!
We also wondered why she was blamed for breaking the plate in the first place.
It was a fair assumption that I broke the plate and put the decoy in the cupboard.
I am the family pot stirrer and the quickest to start shenanigans, Jacknollie admitted.
It was not a stretch to think this was my doing.
But as far as she knows, the OP says her father has never admitted to breaking the plate.
It was all in good fun.
And how does her family feel about this petty revenge?
My family thinks this is awesome!
Dads hearing isnt as good as it once was!
There was a time my kids and I were in a Corelle outlet store looking for couple random plates.
My kids were small and didnt understand what I was doing.
I reminded them of the event and explained my motives, the author continued.
I have fiesta dishes at my house, and I have gone with all different colors.
Mom likes to say this is her version of my fiesta ware, Jacknollie shared.
And there are times when Im visiting and she discovers a new plate.
We hear an exasperated, Now where did THIS ONE come from?
Then we all giggle.
Although, someone mentioned folding the freshly dried clothes and putting them back in the dryer folded.
I might have to try that on someone, the OP says.
Finally, Jacknollie added that shes not finished with this petty revenge.
I ended up raising the shelf above moms plates to give the stack some more room.
I have no idea if shes noticed.
