Funny to share with the Peas this morning.
DH brought me my usual Sunday morning (homemade) frou frou coffee and told me he was making breakfast.
I hear him go into the garage and came back with a duffle bag and he set it down in front of me and said "This is NOT a Mother's Day gift!"
He then pointed and I saw a large pot of yellow daisies on the kitchen table and he pointed to them and said "That's a Mother's gift" the he pointed to the bag and said "This is NOT a Mother's Day gift!"
I opened the bag and it was a Cuisinart Belgian waffle maker! I laughed because we had been talking about getting a new waffle maker after ours died and had considered getting him one for Father's day.
He made some really tasty waffles for breakfast, he even sliced some fresh strawberries to put on top.
After breakfast I was video chatting with the kids and he told them that it wasn't a Mother's day gift because YOU DON'T BUY APPLIANCES FOR MOTHER'S DAY!
Glad he has finally learned! (There has been a time or two in our 31 years of marriage that he didn't heed that advice, LOL)

I did get a kitchen aid stand mixer I’ve Mother’s Day but I had asked for it and we were finally moving to a house where I’d have room for it. |

That's great! Happy Mother's Day! You should do something like that for Father's Day and keep the tradition going. I love it! My husband and I are the odd ones, I want appliances and he wants tools for gifts! My friends says you never get your husband/wife tools/appliances for gifts, but that's exactly what we want.  I told my family I want no gifts, but just for them to go through their clothes in their closets and attic with me and donate, declutter if necessary. Best gift ever! My husband who never gets rid of things got a bag to donate and a small bag to throw out. If my kids do the same, it will be the perfect gift! |

I gave DH a waffle maker for his birthday 10 days ago! 😂 it was a gift of love since I had declared after our kitchen remodel no more small appliances would come into my new kitchen.

LOL. That's awesome!
DH was teasing me today that he was going to get me a personal shaver. MIL is in a memory ward and her caregiver requested one for her facial hair. DH had no idea that women used such a thing (after 30 years of marriage!) He asked if I wanted one and offered it up for Mother's Day. I told him that I don't use one (I use wax strips) and it wasn't a good MD gift. He laughed like a loon because he knows better but loves yanking my chain...

That's cute... and yet I'm confused why it would be ok to give him a waffle iron for Father's Day but not to you for Mother's Day.

I'm okay with appliances for Mother's Day, but glad he knew you weren't

What an aweswome day for you!!
I will admit to asking for a Dyson one year for something. DH caught all kinds of flack at work. When he came home and told me, I told him to let them know I asked for it and to leave him alone. I bought myself a pressure washer yesterday for Mother's Day.

Aw, he's a keeper! The younger women at work were horrified when DH gave me Weathertech floor mats for my SUV for my birthday. I had to confess I asked for them . |

I got Weathertech floor mats for Christmas. To me, falls under the category of "pricey nice things I would never buy for myself" so I was happy! |
