Anniversaries

On Saturday I believe I got food poisoning and was sick all afternoon and through the night. Jim went out Saturday night and got me tons of soup, saltines, matzos and bought a cd for himself. What a sweetheart! I consider that his anniversary gift to me.

When he arrived home I dragged myself downstairs to put things away and he told me something was missing, his Elvis ’75 cd. I looked through the bag and got the receipt. Today, our 7th anniversary, I went back to the store to buy a perfect dinner for two and remembered the cd. Wouldn’t you know they had it right under the customer service counter (thanks Katy and Customer ladies!).

So I wrapped it in brown paper, got him a silly card and he has a “free” present from me. We don’t “do” birthdays, anniversaries or Christmas, but love each other and just do little things for each other. Oh, yeah, we do get stuff for the dog. Cheers! Dee

ps menu is maple-rosemary glazed beef tenderloin, boiled baby red potatoes, and radishes. I was going to make braised fennel but didn’t think he’d like it.
