Delicious, better than nail polish or pancake batter!<BR/> We got our tree up last night. I sawed it and hauled it inside (traditionally Man Work). My DH tried to avoid helping by coming home super late and then hiding behind the newspaper. The kids kept whining, asking him to join in. I said in a stage whisper, "That's OK, kids. He doesn't want to." Oooh, keep that one in your arsenal. It works. The paper crackled and he said, "Did you just say I don't want to help?" I replied by firmly stacking the next-to-last empty ornament box atop the others. He helped, right at the end. You do what you have to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19050282.post-1166136983325875462006-12-14T16:56:00.000-06:002006-12-14T16:56:00.000-06:00These are so funny.
