The Presence of the Presents

We are still trying to resolve a wedding present dilemma. I was with my brother, Joe, when he picked up a few of the bath items that Andy and Megan had on their wish list. In addition to the soap dispenser, toothbrush holder and cup, he had the matching rug in his cart. I know, because we dug through all the rugs to find one with no flaws in it. As there was nothing else large on their list at this particular store, he decided he would just give them cash in addition to the few things he purchased. So imagine my surprise the day after the wedding when Megan opened the gift from Joe and there was no rug in the package. The card attached was from Joe and contained the cash, and a matching wrapped present with no card contained a griddle-which I knew he had not purchased. To add to the mystery, a different gift with a card from someone else contained the rug. Hmmmm.... As my brother at this time was already on his way to the airport to fly back to Colorado, we could not ask him about it. It was my job to talk to Joe about it, and I finally called him yesterday. By this time he has no recollection about if he had one wrapped present or two for them. He does know that he did not get them the griddle, though. The giver of the griddle remains a mystery.
