My crazy Grandmother

My grandmother who lives in California (ie not the French one who lives with us) called the other day to ask if we had gotten the book she sent me. I was surprised that she had sent me something and curious as to what it could be. My brother jibed that it might be a book on plastic surgery before 21 as my grandmother is obsessed with plastic surgery (she's had at least 4 procedures).

The "book" arrived today. It wasn't a book, but a catalog from Anthropologies (a cool if overpriced store) Attached to it was a note:

Briana,
This is what your "progressive" grandmother thinks you should be wearing-you can only do this once when you are young (now). You would look "cool" in most of these outfits-tell your father to look at this magazine!!!
Luv
Nanny
p.s. missing pages are home furnishings

Well, at least she was thinking of me??? I really don;t have the energy to write about my reaction to this, but I suppose it goes along with my grandmother (ex: at the wedding she barely acknowledged my dress but told me I should have worn higher heels, she lectured me once about the wonders of plastic surgery etc.)
