My coworkers are talking about a quinceanera coworker 1 is going to this weekend and one that coworker 2 is planning for her daughter.
- Coworker 1 JUST got the fancy invitation last night for this weekend's quinceanera, the RSVP date is today. - Coworker 1's invitation says to donate to college fund in lieu of gifts. - Coworker 1 is bringing her 12 year old daughter and 2 year old granddaughter - the invitation says "No children under 14 allowed" - Coworker 2 took the dress inspiration from the TLC show My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding. (I'm so excited to see this dress! It's super expensive and giant.) - Coworker 2 is inviting 200 people but is only providing seating and food for 100 people because "not everyone will show up" - Coworker 2 gave the Spanish speakers fancy $7 multi-insert invitations and English speakers $2 post-card invitations
Not even all of it, but I'm enjoying all the quinceanera talk this morning.
No pearl clutching....but the bolded is making me laugh loud enough to wake up the whole house. Dude...its a mexican party and there is FREE FOOD! Some of us might not RSVP but we are known to bring extra people with us to events- especially ones that involve food! And people still show up even if they don't RSVP. There is no such thing as a small mexican party.
Quinces are big down here; there are now Quince fairs and there are at least 3 shops in my town that cater specifically to quinces
Are you going to the event?? Puhlease say yes. I need more distractions this weekend.
No, this weekend is coworker 1's friend's quinceanera.
I don't know yet if I can go to coworker 2's quinceanera. I have family coming in to town around that weekend next month but they won't mind if I take a couple of hours out of their visit for to take one for the team.
Oh oh! And Coworker 3 came in! - She's throwing her daughter a baby shower next month as well. - She recently ordered 2 sets of favors. The "nice ones" will go to certain people. The cheap ones will go to the rest of the guests. - She'll never have to throw a baby shower again because the rest of her kids are boys. - She has complained very loudly about her daughter and the father's choice of baby name. "If you name him that, I'm not going to use that stupid name."
