Panic in the kitchen...

So....

I made a very nice meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green bean dinner last night for Mr.Catman. And he had oatmeal raisin cookies for dessert.

We have a rule: the person cooking does not have to clean up. So, Mr. Catman was working on hand-washing dishes while I was making cookies. Of course, he does not want to get his wedding band dirty, so he places his shiny ring on our black potholders in order to wear the ring when he finishes.

Well, Mrs.Catman needs the potholders. So she quietly relocates his wedding band to a safer edge of the counter where her rings are. So they can 'be together.' Catman finishes, then proceeds to the television, to watch the World Series. After about 5 minutes he rushes to the kitchen, all in a panic, trying to find his ring that is no longer on the potholders that were being used.

"Um,where's my ring? I set it right here on the potholder."

(Panic, panic)

"I relocated it to a safer place next to mine."

You should've seen the relief in his face. Just another reason why I love this man. He was so sincere. (Insert mushy, mushy sounds.)

He was so sincere.

Yah... sincerely concerned you were going to do bodily harm to him when he told you he lost it... 3 weeks after your wedding.
