With all the excitement of finals, school wrapping up, getting ready to head back home, and one or two other rather momentous things, it kind of just occurred to me that I haven't bought my sister a wedding present yet.
And she's getting married at the end of the month.
Which gives me only two weeks.
Might not be the proudest realization of my life, but at least I've still got some time to scramble. Better than realizing it when I'm putting on what my suit before the wedding.She wanted me to wear a kilt but I think she was probably too drunk to remember saying that, thank God.
Does anybody have a solid wedding gift recommendation for a sister you love but who is also almost always incredibly frustrating?

Whatever I end up getting Harry, I'll probably have to go to the city for it. Want to join me?

So, what is it?

It's an earthenware cooking dish kind of thing. Makes some great Moroccan dishes.

Here I thought you'd be a cheeky prat and suggest something insane, like a diamond-studded giant robot.
no subject
But we sell them to mining corporations and concrete cutters. Any they're mostly just arms more than an whole robot. So I didn't think you'd really need to do some heavy duty mining, or drilling.
Besides, food's more interesting.

[Steve draws what he means by the sweet stand since he doesn't know what it's called, looks like this.]

The stand thing you drew might be worth looking into, though. That looks safely non-magical enough. Harry doesn't have the best track record when it comes to taking care of nice things, so it'd have to be pretty sturdy.
no subject
I'm sure you could find a stand like that that's sturdy.
no subject
Hopefully we do have something like that here, and it's not just something you've got across the pond.
no subject
But I really don't see why the UK wouldn't have something like that, so I'm sure you'll find one. Might take a bit of a search, or the Internet, but it's gotta be out there.

[Alec, projecting his sister issues? Yeah, that's exactly what he's doing.]

I know I'm more boringly practical than you, but I'm not so much of a lost cause to actually want to do something like that.

I love her and all, but I can't say we've ever really got on. It's kind of hard to buy thoughtful gifts if we've never actually been all that close.

It May Prove A Useful Starting Point.

I Take It That It Is Not Simply Something That You Can Ask Her?
