My daughter gets more love notes than any person I've given birth to. And not just from prince charming's who ask her to Prom, but from friends and neighbors and leaders and cousins too.
Someone is always dropping off brownies or cookies or candy or rainbow roses. Last night she got a necklace made from a Hawaii quarter with the word BEAUTY stamped across it, and a Mustache Mug full of Dove chocolates.
"These are American fortune cookies," I squealed.
"Technically they're chocolate promises," said my daughter.
"Tomato, tomahto," I said as we unwrapped each piece of chocolate, read our promises, then added the secret ending (in bed).
Can I just tell you that American promises are much more on point than Chinese fortunes. It's almost like Americans write their promises with the secret (in bed) ending in mind. Take my first promise for instance: "Get a good nights sleep (in bed)." I mean, how much more spot on can an American chocolate fortune teller be?
Check this one out:
Americans really get that a good day's sleep is as valuable as a good night's sleep.
My daughter's fortune said, "Too much of a good thing is wonderful (in bed)."
"True that!" I said. "You can never get too much sleep in bed. It's next to impossible."
"Unless you start worrying about all the things that happen while you are sleeping," my daughter added.
"Touche," I said.
My next fortune said, "There are no limits today (in bed)." I took that as permission granted to sleep in as long as I wanted today, and I didn't roll (out of bed) until 5:45 a.m.
There was only one promise that didn't work with the secret ending, although it could work if you had a water bed. "Create your own spa (in bed)."
"I wonder why Americans are so fixated on relaxing and sleeping?" I mused to my daughter.
"Sick and tired, I guess," she shrugged.
After we finished reading all the promises, we re-wrapped each piece of chocolate and returned it to the mustache mug. Then my daughter opened the note that came with the mug:
"I mustache you something. How come you're so amazing?"
I was kinda glad that wasn't an American promise.

Try adding "in the bathroom" to the end of hymn titles.

I'm off to buy me some Dove promises. I need some new promises in bed.
Love the mugs! Too cute.
I love that she gets notes from all over the universe.
I'm sorry, but I must protest this post, the pictures, and in fact your entire blog. You are not representing ... um ... promises in the best possible light. Who on earth would eat chocolate (in bed)? Or read your blog (in bed)? Or sleep until 5:45 (in bed)??
I'm going to write a letter (in bed) to whoever is in charge of this website (in bed) and they'd better have some answers for me or I'll come back and make an even bigger scene...
...here on your blog.
Hopefully just on her blog.........
........not in her bed.
OK I spit my drink out at the last line of this post. Oh mylanta that was funny. Thanks for the smile. I love it.
Ha ha ha 2busy. I've never heard that one. How will I ever sit in Sac meeting again without being sac.
Pat!!! I'm so happy to see you here spitting mylanta out of your nose again. hee hee
DeNae, ha ha Just make sure the letter you write (in bed) is anonymous. ;) In fact any promises you make (in bed) should be anonymous.
hee hee
Garden, ha ha you crack me up.
(referring to your prom post)
So my daughter didn't get asked to prom. wah-wah-wah.
Why? She's purdy and everyone loved her.
I will have 3 graduated from high school and not a prom yet.
Awwwww, LoW! I'm sure it has nothing to do with your daughter. It's a Southern thing. Maybe they don't value Prom in the south.
BTW, when I first read your comment I thought it said (referring to your porn post) and my heart skipped a beat because I know how delicate your sensibilities are and I was afeared I had offended.
Oh, haha!! You don't have a porn post, do you ??? :)
Prom is huge here. Def not that.
:-/
But she's cool with it all. I am the only one with issues about it.
Magical spells really work!! I never thought there were still honest, genuine, trustworthy and very powerful spell casters until i met the spiritual helper, MERUJA OWO. last week he did a love spell for me and it worked effectively and now he just casted another healing spell for my friend who has fibroid and family problem and now she is totally free and she is presently the happiest person on earth, she keeps thanking me all day..
I just thought it would be good to tell the whole world about his good work and how genuine he is, i wasn't thinking i could get any help because of my past experiences with other fake casters who could not bring my husband back to me and they all promised heaven and earth and all they are able to do is ask for more money all the time until i met with this man. he does all spells, Love spells, money spells, lottery spells e.t.c i wish i can save every one who is in those casters trap right now because i went though hell thinking and hoping they could help me.i recommend MERUJA OWO for any kind of help you want.
his email address is: merujaowo101@live.com
if you want to ask me anything my e-mail is: dorispinto101@yahoo.com
Kind Regards,
