Just this beautiful '08 Valentines Longaberger basket! I have to post this because for those of you who know me, You know I'm very hard to surprise! If I suspect or know anything at all, I either figure it out, or can't hardly stand it, so therefor generally prefer to look forward to something rather than be surprised. The difference is a real total surprise! This was one. I sold Longaberger for about 6 years, and so have a "nice" collection, including all the special edition valentines baskets they've had since I started selling. Last summer I quit selling and when I did, then my niece started. Although she had a party last month, and I saw the basket, I didn't order it, and although I was feeling a little bad that I wasn't going to have this years basket, I guess there's been enough going on around here for me so I didn't dwell too much on it!
So, last night when we sat down to our valentines supper, there on my plate was a folded piece of paper...the first clue to a treasure hunt. Now I just want to mention that my husband has NEVER done anything like that either! :*) So after supper I got to go on the hunt and found tie-on, liner, protector, lid & basket, all hid around the room. What a fun surprise & A lovely gift that I didn't even have to buy myself!! Thanks Raimie! you're a super consultant, and Thanks to my hubby for the beautiful basket & surprise!
Hey Maxine,
ReplyDeleteCool basket! We splurged on flowers for each other, and an awesome supper out for Prime Rib for the family, and ribeye for me. Yummy! I yet suffer with my ulcers, so they made themselves known last night, then I am having a bad reaction to a Rebif shot today. Tomorrow will be better!
I love the A Year ago, Then and Now! Keep that up! What a treasure!
Love ya, Debbie T
What a sweet thing to do!!
ReplyDeleteRuss surprised me, too - got me some new perfume, a watch, and a cute fleece shirt with Chip n Dale the squirrels on it saying Nuttin Sweeter. Maybe a bit sappy, but I sure never thot he would buy me all that!
Aren't we all sick and tired of being sick and tired. It has been and extremely rough winter with stress, sickness and more snow. I did post a guestbook on my blog. I'm not sure if it will get much activity but thought it would be a good place for people to leave a message if they didn't want to comment on a picture. I am going to post some pics of the snow but Autumn doesn't have her cable to upload her pics.Happy Sunday!
