I am writing this because my DH made me. This is what he has to say and he wants a verdict from the ladies here.
This is la miss' DH talking:
A very close friend of mine decided to acknowledge our wedding of a few years ago and suddenly out of the blue sent three gifts in rapid succession one day after the other for use in baking including a baking stone. He is a baker. He knew that my wife was interested in learning to bake bread. The last item arrived two days ago (Wednesday). Today is Friday at 9 PM. I believe my wife should call to acknowledge that the gifts arrived by phoning him. My wife says that protocol allows two weeks for a written note to acknowledge a gift. I think her protocol views are outdated and I feel my friend is being snubbed. Who's right?
