Buy some fresh cactus - like, a lot of it - and some fresh chiles (and
anything else you think may be relevent (?) ), of course, and just head
over to the neighbor's MIL with goodies in hand and a pleading look on yer
face, mon.  No words should be needed.  And then clean up whatever mess is
made in preparation of the cactus/goodies.

Jus' could work, mon...

Peace, Hendrix, and Chiles.......
