I hear body paint is really fattening, anyway

One of my favorite stories from our wedding is something neither of us ever even saw. On the day of our wedding, close friends of ours had gone to the hotel where we’d be staying that night and asked for the key to our room. They went up to the room and littered the bed with chocolates, rose petals, and… well… edible body paint. So, you can see the effect they were going for. We had no idea they’d done this, so naturally we weren’t expecting anything when we got to our room. And that’s what greeted us: nothing. None the wiser, we met our friends at breakfast the next morning. They asked if we’d enjoyed our room, giggling the entire time, and we said we had. They asked if we’d enjoyed the things they’d left for us, to which we said, “… …. what?” As it turns out, the receptionist had given them the key to the wrong room. So, some lucky couple (in my mind, it’s an 80-year-old couple) was met with all manner of titillating gifts when they arrived at their room that night, but it wasn’t us!
