Well, Kelley, when Miss Manners buys a set of sheets for my daughter and her fiance, she can buy a neutral color. As far as I'm concerned, when someone gives you a gift, you accept it graciously, even if it doesn't meeting your exacting standards. Who sees the sheets on their bed other than the two of them and their cat? Do they not use the comforter to cover the sheets when they make the bed? How is having a blue set of sheets causing them a major decorating problem when this is their first apartment and they don't have a decorating style or specific colors since most of what they have is mix and match?
Sorry, but Miss Manner can just deal with it.
