Last year, my wife and I got more money than we expected as gifts for our anniversary. In the wake of this, we decided that we ought to do something with the money that was worthwhile.  Thus, we bought what my wife informs me is the least romantic anniversary gift ever–a chest freezer.

The fact that we are now capable of freezing fresh fruit, buying vast quantities of meat (legs of lamb, sizeable chunks of deer, etc…) and storing leftovers like never before does not console her.

I admit that she has a point, but I still like the freezer.

That being said, I’m informed that any money we get this year will go toward buying season tickets to the Grand Rapids Symphony.
