Husband and wife

During the cold Winter months I like to sleep in big flannel night gowns. Granny gown Unforntunately they only come in Granny model, so charming they are not. In fact, there have been times when I took a big sheet out of the cupboard, and it turned out to be my nightgown. Comfortable and great...

I found the perfect present for my hubby: Bonny Becker's children's book: The Sniffles for Bear (Bear and Mouse). It's like giving him a self-portrait! I'm so terribly ill Because whenever hubby gets sick, he acts like Bear. Whining and acting like he's on death's door. And just like Bear, he doesn't really wánt to...

You know those songs that get stuck in your head, and no matter how hard you try to get rid of them they just won't leave you alone? I suffered from just that phenomenon, while we were heading for a visit to my parents in law. Amazing grace stuck in my head 'I keep hearing...

I was walking through the aisles of our local Walmart, looking for things I didn't know I needed, when I crossed paths with a German family. You can look, but please don't touch! The mom was totally engrossed in all the merchandise, leaving the dad to do the parenting. As they walked by lots of...

'Right! This Sunday we're having Brussels Sprouts!' hubby declared haughtily and threw a bag of Brussels Sprouts on the table. But I had planned vegetable soup! I was unpleasantly surprised, because I had planned some nice and easy-to-make vegetable soup for our Sunday dinner. So I asked: 'Will you be doing the cooking next Sunday...

My husband and I wage a silent battle about who works the hardest, and who's the most tired. But apart from that, we fight about who can cook the best soup. Bland versus spicy Hubby says his soup tastes the best, but I think it's more bland than Tinkiewinkie without his red purse. So I...

Hubby likes to show his love for me, by physical contact. He likes to visit my side of the bed, and then wrench his clammy foot between my warm legs. And if that's not an option, he wants to at least put his hand on my shoulder. Just so I know that he's there. Sweet...

It was early morning. I was in the shower enjoying some quiet time. Feeling the warm water cascading down my body, cherishing the feeling of being alone. No one else around. Then suddenly I heard that telltale sound of a door opening, followed by an icy cold swish of air. Then: 'Hiiiiiii honey. Are you...
