The title is a terrible pun,
I know. You’ll understand how it fits in a moment.
First off, staffers working
for his physician gave my husband the nickname “Mr. Pickles” due to all the
jarred dills he has taken since last season’s boon. I, of course, thought
immediately of “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde”.
Though the mythical Hyde is
the insane one, and my husband the more emotionally stable partner, I suggested
calling ourselves “Mr. Pickles and Dr. Gherkin”. Amused, he embraced this
occasional joke.
Fast forward to our
anniversary last week.
He went grocery shopping
alone, bless his heart, and decided to peruse the greeting card aisle. We have long
followed a feline theme for all holidays, so he sought a change. He went so far
as to look outside the anniversary section, which he found limited thanks to
the United States
celebrating Fathers today.
No doubt you can imagine
where this is going…

He indeed discovered one featuring a pickle. And it's hilarious inside and out.

I know you appreciate humor from all I've read. ~hugs~ It seems to have been underrated by many folks. Thanks for all the kind words and best wishes to you and yours!
DeleteGo for it! I love that card!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteWhatever works, I say. Does it make it harder or easier to find cards when you're chained to a specific theme?
ReplyDeleteThanks! Honestly, cat themed cards are easy. Food may be tougher. :)
Deletehappy anniversary to you both...
