As somebody else did, I cooked dinner at home. Normally, I would have headed out to the shop when I got home, but tonight I stopped by a local butcher, purchased some veal, and had a hot meal of veal picatta (spelling?) fettucini alfredo and a bottle of her favorite chardonnay waiting for her when she walked through the door. I also stopped by the florist on the way home and had some flowers on the counter for her to appreciate while I got things ready.
She does more for me than I could mention. The least I could for her was make her evening a little less hectic by taking over the kitchen and treating her to her much-loved candle-light dinner.
Where would we be without our better halves? I, for one, would not be half the man I am.

A nice little pendant necklass in sterling silver - it was simple, quick, and she loves it. Bought it from a shop on our little town's main street during a lunch break yesterday (last minute, huh?). Did I mention I'm shopless right now?
