I just doubled the size of my greeting card section on my website. If
you haven’t sent your sweetheart a card recently, now’s a good time.
The cards can be accessed off my home page, down on the right;

Have a cherished week. — Michael

Sending your sweetheart an e-card for no particular reason. Just
because is good enough.

Robin Meyer from Tulsa, Oklahoma won last week’s contest. I put her
winning idea using champagne on my site along with several others.

This week’s contest is on KISSING GAMES. Honestly, I never played
Post Office or Spin the Bottle so I don’t really know how to explain
it to someone else. I’m adding a selection of kissing games on my
soon-to-be-opened kissing section so tell me a kissing game and
explain the rules. It can be a standard one or make up your own. The
winner gets a $25 gift certificate to Barnes & Noble.

Ideas must be received by Monday, July 17 to qualify for the prize.

IS THERE A CURIOUS SPOUSE IN THE HOUSE?
by Doug Dynes

This is an idea for the spouse with a curiosity. My wife loves to
investigate gifts. She shakes them, smells them, anything to try to
figure out what is inside!

Well, this turns out to be an opportunity for the fun loving person.
Last Christmas, I included some extra items when wrapping her gifts,
but did take care not to damage or dirty the gift.

If you include some nuts and bolts inside a small container it gives
an excellent rattle sound. Adding a piece of wood or other object
when wrapping eliminates the boring box shape. If you’re really
brave, you might try a bottle partially filled with water — imaging
her surprise when the package sloshes!
