a pot of tactful-ness

the mom is so tactful la...

I've received a cookware pot from the office lucky draw.
(but i had my eyes on the baking tray instead).

a coliq of mine gotten it and dont mind exchanging it with me.

I was contemplating if I shld exchange or just give the mom the pot.
I dont normally cook u see...

and so I called her...and asked.

her answer (which has been translated in broken english) " keep it. you might want to have it as a momento (to remind you- as in me- of the lucky draw)."

errr..is that indirectly telling me that she wants the pot?
so tactful..hee!!!
