Quote from Emily in The Reigning Lorelai
Lorelai: Mom, I know how hurt you are. That letter was terrible. But there's still a lot of stuff that has to get done. Emily: I know. You're right. Say, I've got an idea. Why don't you call Pennilyn Lott and have her plan the funeral? Lorelai: Mom. Emily: I mean, she's the one that was supposed to be planning it anyhow, so I say let her do it. Emily: You need something, Sookie? Sookie: I was just wondering if it's going to be okay to set up a buffet in the dining room. Emily: I don't know. What do you think Pennilyn Lott would do? You think she'd set it up in the dining room? Because personally, I think we should just toss some cheese cubes in the coffin, stuff some toothpicks in her mouth, and let the people go to town.
