(that’s Valentine’s Day, not Veteran’s Day, not that I have anything against Veteran’s Day, but it’s just not what this post is about)

Things nobody wants to hear:

“Happy Valentines Day! I got my period”

Thing I do to try and help:
Make pecan pralines with her favorite recipe, since the chocolate I bought for VD will only make her cramps worse 🙁

Bonus points:
Went to the grocery store (and took the baby!) to get whipped cream for the pralines

Dumbass moment:
Looking for caramels at the store. When I was already planning to make them from scratch. Duh.

Bigger dumbass moment:
Cooking the stuff too long. Now I have some lovely rocks.

Bonus:
Trying again tomorrow night after basketball. Maybe. She’ll be at a meeting without me and the kids.

Happy Valentine’s Day, y’all!
