All I want for Christmas

Dear honey, 

Because I am the best wife ever, I have solved the dilemma of what you are getting me for Christmas. 

Take out lunches and dinners from now through Christmas Eve. 

Last night, you bought me (and our people) pizza.

Tonight, we are having soup from Ralph's for dinner and Hawaiian Ono BBQ for dinner. 

Tomorrow for lunch, it sounds like an El Pollo day. 

Tomorrow night, you have a pass because the neighbors have invited us for dinner. 

I will cook breakfast for our people - out of self preservation to make sure that some part of their routine stays intact so they don't totally and completely lose their minds. 

Christmas Eve it's lunch out after church.

I will make our spaghetti dinner Christmas Eve - a tradition started the year Cami came home from China and it was all we could do. 

What a gift it will be to me to not have to plan, cook, serve and clean up after people while trying to keep us all sane in the "anticipation of Christmas" craze. 

I love you and you are welcome. 

Your loving wife.

  1. I'm with you! Make it so I don't have to prepare a meal and I'm in heaven, especially if what comes is a healthy meal. My neighbor called me the other evening, not knowing it was my birthday, and asked, "Have you had dinner yet?" We hadn't and it turned out she'd prepared a large meal for a friend who ended up back in the hospital so she gave the meal to us instead! Best birthday present ever.
