Especially for Bruce

Hi Bruce!

I'm leaving my wish list here in my blog, so that when those special days come up (Valentine's Day, my birthday, Mother's day, "Bruce Loves His Wife" Day, etc . . .) you'll be able to find me something that I really want. Isn't that thoughtful of me?

• Frieling Handle-It Glass-Bottom Springform Pan
• Jane Eyre (the new Masterpiece Theater DVD
• A nice necklace (or two) and some hypo-allergenic, nickel-free earrings
• Tangerine-Mango body wash (from Bath & Body Works)
• Pajamas—the soft, cotton-knit kind (another pair would be nice).
• Godiva Dark Chocolates (can't get too many). My favorites are any of the dark truffles (except coffee flavors), and the dark chocolate raspberry cordial. Mmmm!
• Deva-Curl No-Poo and One Condition
• Those serving dishes that come with those cool racks that hold more than one dish on them, so there's more space on the table for even more dishes.
• A gift card to a restaurant—or just a trip to a restaurant!
• "The Christmas Story" set of figurines by Willow Tree
• A good Frank Sinatra album, including the song, "The Way You Look Tonight"
• A good Elvis Presley album
• Rejoice and Be Merry! —the new Tabernacle Choir cd with the King's Singers
• A Baker's Field Guide to Holiday Candy & Confections by Dede Wilson
• Socks; not the thick sport kind, but not thin trouser-socks either—something in-between. The kind with no holes in the toes. ;-)
• America's Choir: The Story of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir DVD
• The New Best Recipe by (who else?) Cooks Illustrated
• A pedicure!
• A good mandolin (the kind you chop vegetables with, not the musical instrument). I'll bet Cooks Illustrated has a review of the best mandolins.
• Flowers are always good! :-)

I'm sure, Bruce, that you can't fail to appreciate this very thoughtful post. If I think of any more to add to it, I will do it—just for you!

With love, from your sweet, loving and unselfish wife,
Loralee
