My Husband, The Master Chef

I have, in the midst of hyper fatigue and frustration, found two positives in the madness of holiday retail life.

First, I have four extra hours today to rest, wash clothes and catch up on life because our store is having to cut hours this week - (a result of having a floor set, a regional visit, a window change and promotional updates, all within a 24 hour period the week after Black Friday). A very welcome surprise that allows me to make this post.

The Second, and by far the most impressive, my husband has the quite impressive makings of a fabulous cook! During the past couple weeks I have been working ridiculous hours, getting ready for, and sustaining the busyness that holiday shopping drives, and Bill has taken on the temporary role of house husband - although he's so wonderful at it, I may not let him retire!
Last night I came home to him folding laundry, and once I unloaded bags, unwound scarves and sweaters, and pried shoes off my feet he pulled out two bowls of the best tasting turkey salad I have ever tasted. If I could find our little camera I would delight you with photos of the two masterpieces, though I daresay they would not do the yummy delights justice.

How did a girl like me get so lucky?
Must be my winning charm and irresistible good looks.
