PUT IT IN WRITING

submitted by: Christine Robertson

As a nurse, I work late into the night once or twice a week leaving my beloved to fend for himself at mealtime. His culinary choice is generally grilled cheese sandwiches (which he truly doesn’t mind at all).

When I can, I try to prepare him a nice dinner in the morning. I leave it in the refrigerator along with a simple dessert. I write a message around the outside of the dessert plate written in chocolate syrup — usually about waking him when I get home. He may have to come home to an empty house, but he gets something nice to look forward to, a la chocolate.
