    So I was out Shopping with my Husband at JoAnn's yesterday, the 4th of July, Which just also happens to be our wedding anniversary, and I was explaining to him how much enjoyment I get from swapping blocks. I told him that we each make a certain amount of blocks all the same and then we send them and get back one block each from everyone else. So he said.... (are you ready for this?)... "So you put all the blocks together and make a pretty blanket". :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: OH MY HECK!!! How long has he been married to me and he said it on our anniversary!!!! :shock: :shock: He called a quilt a BLANKET!!!!! :evil: ....SACRILEGE!!!!! The Horror!!! How dare he degrade a piece of art like that!!!!
    I got him all straightened out! I don't think he will be making that mistake again. ;-) LOL

    Let's see - he was shopping WITH you at JoAnn's - and then you yelled at him! ????? When he was trying to be interested in something you were doing?

    I hope you didn't yell at him so much that he won't go shopping with you again. :|

    Hope you had a good anniversary, in spite of his "horrible" gaffe!

    Hopefully you refrained from slapping that man silly!


    At least he's good is oh so many other ways...maybe he was just pulling your chain to get your dander up (and it worked).

    bearisgray--It was a blunder.. Now he knows something else to tease me about. It was all in fun, and we had a great anniversary. We went to dinner at our favorite restaurant and then we shopped some more and watched a movie and then we sat on our balcony and watched the whole valley light up with fireworks. It was great!
