We Should Fight Over Salt

Because that will make our relationship so very close!



I sent Matt to the store yesterday to pick up some milk, butter, cereal; basically the essentials to last us for the few weeks remaining in Idaho.

When he came home I opened up the bag and saw salt.
Me, "Salt? What?! Why would you buy salt?"
Matt, "Because we are almost out."
I bring down the old container of salt, shake it, and estimate that there is at least a 1/4 inch of salt covering the bottom (not to mention the shaker filled with salt).
"Matt," I impatiently say, "why would you buy salt?! This container that we have has lasted our whole marriage!"
Matt frustratingly says, "Well, sorry! It was only a dollar!"

Don't worry, we made up later that night.

This morning I come down and see the new container of salt on the countertop, with these words written in crayon:

Oh love and marriage, you guys are awesome.
It's things like this that make me believe that Matt and I will make it, and be totally okay for 20, 30, 40+ years.

I'll let you guys know when we do run out of our new container.  Look for the salt update in 7 years!
