I've got one like that - she's Dutch, I'm American, and every year she
tries some new way of explaining to me how "the customs in Europe are
different". Phooey...like I was born yesterday?! ;)

What I now do is get a phony gift ready - last year, for her 29th
birthday, at 12:01 she got a box of white athletic sox. With orange
stripes. Ah, customs...
