Actually now that you mentioned it, absolutely nothing. Maybe I will prepare his favorite meal tonight…maybe.

I had her winter tires taken off and the summer tires mounted and.. balanced. But sadly, no pics so I can’t really claim it. I am getting her pizza and wings tonight, and for a special treat, garlic knots.

Perfect timing for your question here.

I just placed an Invitation Out Notice in my wifes coffee cup. She will read it, when she wakes up.

Its an invitation from me for us to have a nice dinner out tonight and then go win at bingo.

She will love it.

By golly,I am going to bake him a cake! :)

Nice.

I got her a dozen roses and a card last night. We are marking our 20th wedding anniversary. We will be doing the whole fancy dinner/night out thing this weekend.

_zen_'s avatar

^ Congratulations. 12 roses are always classic and classy.

“accidentally” dropped some ice cream down her shirt (not in public), began “cleaning” it up, and proceeded to help her get more clean in the shower. Sorry, I though I had the video camera going but it died… lol

_zen_'s avatar

^ Very romantic. ~

I call that Friday.

I made her an Air Supply and Billy Joel mix tape.

I baked him some brownies not too long ago and I’m planning to again today while he’s out. I’ve done a few other things that he really likes lately, but I won’t be mentioning them here sorry Zen. :-)

I brought him a cup of coffee as he was hurrying out the door for work so he could be a little caffinated for his trip in.

I don’t have to do much because he does for himself. He wanted to go to the Roger Waters concert in Amsterdam with his brother.. he went. He wants to take off and party with friends when we’re meant to be having family vacation time together at Easter, he goes. He cleans his motorcycle with oil and grease and then tracks it into the house… I clean it up. He wants to spend half his month’s pay on buying documentation so he can get said motorcycle registered and on the road, he does.

I let him sleep until noon when we were on our family holiday together because he was out late partying with friends… I think that’s close to what passes for having done something for him these days. Oh.. and I complimented him on his haircut today. Bonus points for that.

@cazzie You have any sisters?

ucme's avatar

I informed the dear woman that I had nothing in need of ironing last evening. The very least I could do….a regular casanova, that’s me.

erichw1504's avatar

I told her she can take two breaks today from working in the kitchen, but the second break must be a quick one.

Blueroses's avatar

Well, last night I told him he’s special and entirely unique.
This morning when he pissed me off (again) I clarified my point by adding that I meant he’s a spoiled and arrogant jerk with a tiny emotional center.

I think it’s helpful for him to hear the truth. Do I get any points?

A friend of mine visiting from out of state last week and became stuck a few hours north of us with no way back to make her flight home. I was working a double shift and couldn’t leave but my guy jumped in his truck and went out to get her. She and I both sent him texts telling him he was our hero. It’s not a romantic scenario but he loved the appreciation and bunches of text hearts we sent.

I like to remind him now and then how he became my hero in the first place and it always makes him blush.

JLeslie's avatar

I tell him he is beautiful all the time. I do little things so he knows I was thinking about him. A special meal, or a text that I miss him or love him or just with a list of all the nicknames I call him.

Bed and Breakfast in the city. Away from kids. A big, flouncy bed. That we barely left. Many sweet words. God, I love her!

cazzie's avatar

@Blueroses we should get together and bitch.. i mean chat

cazzie's avatar

@Adirondackwannabe yes, 4 and they’re all older and married. I’m the only one who sees ‘tamroob’ on her forehead when she looks in the mirror.

Facade's avatar

Surprise head last night. I like to make sure he sleeps well…
That’s some romance for ya!

Cruiser's avatar

@Facade Pay attention to the question! Pics or it never happened! XD

Sadly, flew 4000 miles for a weekend in New York with the love of my life. We don’t get to see each other nearly as often as we should (which should be every damn day). We will remedy that by the end of summer though…

bkcunningham's avatar

I was surprised with a weekend in the Poconos. We stayed in one of the old honeymoon places with the champagne glass hot tub and a swimming pool in your room. It was Campbell Soup good. Mmmm Mmmm

dabbler's avatar

I finally put the mirror up in the bathroom a week or so after we got it at Ikea.
After a decade or so, it’s the little things!

My husband, who does most of our grocery shopping from a list, unexpectedly brought home an apple pie this week, which was not on the list. I love apple pie.

Winters's avatar

@YARNLADY by apple pie are talking about American Pie Apple Pie? lol

YARNLADY's avatar

@Winters Not the third base kind : – )

Sunny2's avatar

I served brunch instead of lunch today . . . fried eggs with melted cheese, sausages & toast.
He loved it. Sounds tame, but we’re old.

Kardamom's avatar

I made him some oatmeal, cranberry, dark chocolate chip, walnut, dried cherry cookies. He’s very heath conscious and would be very unlikely to buy or eat cookies, but these cookies were loaded with antioxidants and fiber and they tasted fantastic!

I also got him a little hand pump activated water spritzer (that you can wear around your neck) for when he’s walking his dog and it gets really hot and he’s “shvitzing” (his favorite Yiddish word that he learned from watching The Nanny).

Next week I’m going to make him some cold soba noodle salad with a peanut butter dressing that he’s been requesting. And maybe some fresh spring rolls if I can figure out how to make them without ripping the rice paper wrappers.

@erichw1504 I made her an Air Supply and Billy Joel mix tape.

Next 25th anniversary, spring for a cd player and really wow her. Enough with the tape cassettes already.

;-)

No – this is the romance question. But apparently you get lurve.

@wundayatta: Bed and Breakfast in the city. Away from kids. A big, flouncy bed. That we barely left. Many sweet words. God, I love her!

Be with her completely – forget the laptop and fluther for a while. Get a nice bouncy bed, without the fluther. Did you just coin that term? Flouncy? ~

@facade: Saying you are giving him head, a bj or whatever without pics – will get you lurve – but when you hit 10 lurve – pics or it never happened – I can make your lurve disappear in a poof.

Look what happened to all of mine.

Facade's avatar

Bring it on

_zen_'s avatar

Poof.

This morning after showering and dressing for work, I set my alarm and snuggled up next my sweetie in our bed for a wonderful 40 minutes nap. He really liked it.
