MAD ABOUT YOU.

835 She hung a thirty-six-inch-wide strip of butcher paper on the wall. She then painted her body with water-based red tempera paint, then struck a pose and pressed her painted body against the paper-creating a very personalized and definitely one-of-a-kind work of art. She let it dry, rolled it up, tied it with a red ribbon, and gave it to her husband for Valentine's Day. He still talks about it to this day.

836 He always did have a tendency to "overdo" things. One year he rented a limousine for her birthday. She enjoyed it so much that the following year he rented the limo again...but this time he rented it for an entire week! So in addition to their fancy night on the town, she got chauffeured to the supermarket, to the dry cleaner, to church; the kids got chauffeured to school, to soccer practice, to the playground. A memorable experience for one and all!

Chapter Theme Songs:.

"Mad About You," Belinda Carlisle "Mad About You," Sting 837 It was Sally's birthday, but her husband David hadn't acknowledged it all day, and Sally's disappointment was starting to turn into anger. Then David asked her to run some errands for him while he went out to play golf, and her heart just sank. She gave up.

While walking dejectedly through the mall she did a double-take at a store mannequin who looked remarkably like David. Then the mannequin winked at her. It was David, who stepped out of the store window and kissed her. Dressed in a tuxedo, he led her to the dress department, where he bought her an elegant evening gown. Then, in their formal attire, they went out to the best French restaurant in town.

Remember when you were "mad about" each other? You can re-create that feeling!
