I'm Mrs. Oh My Gosh That Brittny's Shameless

Wedding Vows

There are two things Will made me promise him before we got married:

1. That I would never buy cheap toilet paper

2. That I would never buy cheap peanut butter

I did some figuring today and the way I see it, we’ll be spending an extra $5,000 during our lifetime to ensure this promise remains true. That’s not even factoring in inflation or the fact that we might have kids one day or have visitors over. What… that’s got to bring it up a least another $1,000, right?

$6,000.

$6,000 for fancy toilet paper and name brand peanut butter.

The things we do for love.

LMAO! Will cracks me up. I don’t blame him on either one though, I would spend the extra money for good peanut butter and comfort down below = )

That is an understandable wish.  I’m pretty sure Tom would throw a fit if I bought the cheap brand of either too.  I usually buy both at Sams, so at least we are getting a little discount!  And when you think about it, $5000 over a lifetime is not so bad...right?

Brad had me promise something very similar, except with ice cream ... needless to say, I dont complain. wink Brand name ice cream is sooo much better than the cheap stuff.  And Brad’s grandpa used to be an ice cream truck man loooong time ago (maybe in the 1930s?) and got to bring home all the ice cream he didnt sell.  Wouldnt that just be heaven! 

Brad’s cousin prefers the cheap peanut butter, says it’s more peanutty.  I’m loyal to my brand and havent looked into that one.  I never could understand paying a lot for TP just to flush it down the drain.  Granted, we dont buy the “John Wayne TP”, but it is the cheapest of the soft stuff.  I put up with enough of the John Wayne TP in 4 years of college.  You’d think for the price you pay to stay in those dorms they could supply decent TP!

Did you get my last email?  I havent heard back from you so I’m wondering if it sent.  It doesnt like your email address sometimes, it’s happened before.

Have a lovely day!

I need to get that formula from you so I can do some figuring myself. LOL smile Will’s right though...cheap toilet paper sucks. It’s Charmin Ultra all the way! About peanut butter...since the whole food poisoning ordeal a few months back I can’t find Peter Pan peanut butter ANYWHERE. Did they just go out of business or something? I’m still mourning that loss.

Yeah, none of that generic toliet paper for me either.  Or Matt.  It reminds of the TP in the bathrooms at elementary school.  It sucked!!

As for peanut butter, we’re not that BIG eaters of the stuff, but we do have a jar in the pantry.  But, we’re all about some Jiffy. :0)

He’s a smart guy. . . lol. Sorry I’ve been on hiatus, it happens every once in a while when I feel like I have nothing new to offer my blog and that no one is interested in hearing my spiel.ha ha. Hope to get a new post together soon, thanks for motivating me.

While I didn’t put it in the wedding vows, I will never buy cheap TP!!  I grew up with that crappy Scotts tissue where you needed half the roll to wipe and not get your hand gross, so now I get the Charmin.  It is definitely worth it and when Chloe uses the potty, she will have only the finest TP on her little tush!

LMAO, Britt!  But I’m with Will...No.Cheap.Toiletpaper.  Never!!  I hate it, hate it, hate it.  smile

(And PS...I’ve been catching up on reading posts, and don’t feel bad...I’m a dessert person, too.  In fact, on vaca, we order dessert at EVERY MEAL.  Mmmmm, key lime pie.  Dangit, now I want Key Lime Pie!!)

brittny I'm B-Love. I've just returned to America after spending three years in Kuwait with my husband Mr. B-Love and our two maltese, Boz and Lucy. We recently added two more doggies to our family, Rocky and Teddy. I love weight training, OU football, and lazy weekends. Buckle up and get ready for my constant embarrassing moments, continual madness at a new job, and my daily effort to rely on Christ while adjusting to life back in the real world.
