JoAnn....

FLASHBACK TIME:

Ya just triggered a memory from the early days of my 20+ year
marriage (Gee... I've been divorced almost that long!!) <surprised
look on face>.

We lived in a cute little apartment that had a room air
conditioner which to which we had to add water every coupla days.
THAT was my hubby's self-appointed chore...

One day it was very warm so I made a big pitcher of lemonade
Since Ron had put water in the air conditioner just the day
before, I used the water pitcher for the lemonade (it was the
larger of our two pitchers).

Ron came home after work and went into the kitchen where I could
hear him puttering around.   I started to call out to him to tell
him there was a pitcher of frosty cold lemonade, but before I
could get that out of my mouth, Ron bustled into our bedroom,
water pitcher in hand and heading straight for the  ear
conditioner.

To make a long story shorter, I was laughing soooo hard I couldn't
tell him there was lemonade in the pitcher, but as the rich lemony
smell surrounded us and the small bits of lemon pulp shot out into
the room, he figured out what had me convulsed with laughter
(wiping eyes and LOL at memory) and HE just about died laughing
himself!!! <LOL>
