    I laughed soooo hard at the "Nile Fruits" that I had tears on my face!!! He is SUCH a 'peach of a friend' (pun intended)...he went out of his way to get what he believed the list said!! Kudos to him!! Happy Birthday to Aunt Chantel. I just love how much fun this whole family has!!

    I'd say that Michael Potts’ interpretive reading and shopping skills are second to none, proving he is truly king of de Nile. I also agree 100% with Stephanie's comment, "Seeing the chairs in their full glory for the first time with a properly laid table....that is exquisite." Followed by sharing Tatinette's birthday celebration. Happy daze to all.

    🎄🎄🎄 The herb bouquets were perfect as they didn’t detract from all the “bunnyness”, as flowers would have. And they keep well in water…very handy for cooking and you don’t have to run outside in the winter! Don’t underestimate your flower(herb) arranging talents, Stephanie!🎄🎄

    @edwardulrich1515 11 месяцев назад +18

    Michael Potts, I'm on your side. I read that menu board as "NILE FRUITS," too. After all, who would need to stress "nice" as if anyone would purposely bring home a selection of bad fruits! That Egyptian Nile cruise is worth remembering.
    Happy Birthday 🎈🎁🥂🍾 Chantelle 🎉. Stephen made a loving toast to you ❤ and rightfully so.
