I am slightly embarrassed to say that I did not see this coming. Joe was bottling beer and I was writing a speech. Many of you might know that although an excellent cook, Joe tends to cut himself, burn himself, bump his head, or break something. So, when I heard, "Aimee, I need you quick!" from the kitchen, I went running. Mr. Sneaky Pants had his hands full of bottling tools and said he needed a 'secret ingredient' from the freezer. Not knowing what goes into the beer making process, I retrieved the small brown bag from the freezer wondering what 'secret ingredient' he could be adding to our Christmas Beer.
Folks, this is where it is ok for you to laugh. I saw the green box with the gold bow and thought, "Wow! what expensive spice store wraps their spices so nicely!?"
"Could this be expensive Sarsaparilla?" -- yes, the really expensive spice!
I have a blurry memory of what happened next, except Joseph was on one knee and the secret ingredient was on my finger for eternity.
