[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 592224, member: 14557"] Heh, one of the family traditions is that brunch in nice enough restaurant. So yeah, usually dresses, no jeans, but still rather casual. I don't even make my boys wear ties. Just presentable enough that we don't look like total country bumpkins even if we are :bigsmile: But some of those garden parties mother in law throws are black tie and I guess she is worried that field mustard doesn't go well with that. :rofl: And HaoZi, don't believe Google, it gives you only pictures of prettiest time with that plant. I mean, this [URL]http://www.mycoldprairie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/Mustard-field.jpg[/URL] doesn't look that bad. But it looks like that about a week. Early summer it looks like badly planted weed, late summer it is unflattering shade of brown, tangled and seriously ugly. And the scent is oily. And at fall stubble isn't nicest colour. :bigsmile: And yeah, my mother in law seems to have some difficult child traits of her own. [/QUOTE]
