Bernadette--I had a waffle with strawberry topping on it and it was great! Then we got pumpkin muffins to bring home. They have a cream cheese topping on it and are basically a pumpkin roll in the shape of a muffin. They are fantastic! Which reminds me, do you remember the time when we were very young and your mom took us to Perkins for breakfast? At that time, we didn't have a Perkins here and I was so excited. I had twinberry syrup for the first time. Also, you and I went into the bathroom and were trying to get a ghost to come out of the mirror by chanting "mary" (or is it bloody mary?). Do you remember that? I think we got scared before we said it the third time and ran out of the bathroom.
Christmas presents--every year Dave and I say we are not buying gifts for each other. Then, as Christmas gets closer, we start saying we'll buy small, around $20 and then it builds up from there. So, this Christmas was no different except I didn't get Dave anything. Then the other day I remembered something he wanted and ordered it for him. It was coming today by FedEx which doesn't come until around 3 which is after Dave is gone to work. So in the car, on the way home from Perkins, I made a big deal about how we weren't supposed to buy each other anything and that I don't have a gift for him (I know he got me something, by the way) and that I am going to feel so bad that he won't have a gift to open on Christmas. He kept saying that it was fine and that he didn't need anything, blah, blah, blah, and I know he believed me. So, we got home and we are just hanging out with the kids and I look up and see the FedEx truck outside. I said "Oh shit" and I start yelling at him to get downstairs in the basement. He of course saw the truck and now he knows that I did actually get him something. He didn't see the box so I don't think he knows what. I didn't want him to see the box because he can just look at a box and he knows what it is. He is gifted in that way. Hopefully he will still be surprised!
