I was also thinking you could just paint over it, but then you'd have to paint the rest of it, and you just can't paint bricks. I suck at thinking sometimes.

One couple had three different different vacuums! Three! What? I have one and that's enough. And a bread warming basket--who under the age of 70 needs a bread warmer?

Brian Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I give gift cards to places the couple is registered at as gifts for weddings. Probably like $50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
