    Have you buttered your spouse's bread lately?

    "Your mate doesn't live by bread alone; he or she needs to be "buttered up" from time to time".

       -- Zig Ziglar

    Care to share?  What have you done or said to your spouse lately, and when?

    Re: Have you buttered your spouse's bread lately?

    Right now we are both home all day. And we are both very buttery! Sometimes it can be a smile, one of the silly ways we say "I loveYou", a glass of tea when it isn't expected, or rubbing his sore shoulders. Grand displays are great... but it is the EVERY DAY butter that seems to smooth the best.

    This past week, on a daily basis...I've been holding my dh's hand, giving him hugs, telling him I love him.    [these are biggie's for us!  and stuff I know he appreciates]

    Also, last night, went out and helped him trimming trees and bagging the branches.

    Re: Have you buttered your spouse's bread lately?

    Im with DIC but female..I "allowed" Banana to cook me dinner and bring it to me.And I SAID thank you.

     

    I did NOT get mad at him when he came to pick up my plate even though I wasnt done yet.

    I used EXTRA covers to cover my nude body so as not to tempt him as I slept.

     

    Hey...good butter ey?

    Love

     

    Dallas
