Vanilla Eggs

Here is one of our funny newly-wed stories that we do not want to forget.

Sometime during the first few months of our marriage, Ben got up early on a Saturday to make us breakfast-in-bed.

He came back upstairs with the works; coffee; eggs; etc. (he is so sweet!). I took my first bite and gave him a funny look, "These eggs taste weird...like...vanilla!" Bashfully, Ben explained that we were out of milk so he had substituted milk with French Vanilla coffee creamer.

After thanking him for his effort and trying to eat another bite, I gave up on the vanilla eggs. Ben (being cost-effective) wouldn't throw the eggs away and resolutely began eating the entire plate for two. 

Ultimately, despite his best efforts, Ben could not finish the plate of vanilla eggs.

Looking Back

My husband and I have been married 255 days.  The more stories I shared with friends and families, the more I wanted to write them down and remember them when I am old, crotchety and need a good laugh.

Along the way, you can laugh with us as we share our life stories.
