your fiance/husband's first night in america...

[Sofiyya 1,687]

The rush was because the judge was trying to find any excuse to mot allow us to marry in the first place and we were down to the wire by the time our newly-hired attorney was able to convince him that if the US Embassy had validated my divorce ( a requirement), then why wouldn't he accept their word, if not my divorce decree. We did have a honeymoon in May this year.

I've never been divorced and I didn't have a divorce decree. I had a death decree. That was a typo I didn't catch. The rest is true.

ok seems like yall all just voted for chocolate chip cookies.

sooooooo what else goes in the "welcome home " basket?

Babybunny-- sorry since I'm not up on everyone's religious preferences yet..

But I would choose the chocolate chip! i made them for my husband and he LOVED them. if your SO is Muslim and you want to keep it halal, just buy vanilla powder or non-alcoholic vanilla when you make the recipe! Chocolate chip is best made by scratch, buuuuut PB is great if you buy the pilsbury one and then add some extra crunchy peanut butter to the dough! So I think you could do both!! Sugar cookies are also good from the pre-done dough.

You could make a cake? And write something cute on top?

AND! OMG! You could have a cuuute dinner with candles and non-alcoholic wine (sparkling juice) if you're keeping halal, but I think I'd do that on day 2!

As far as what else in the basket? Depends on what kind of signals you want to send! Rahma has good ideas! Or you could put in some of his favorite snacks or candy, or maybe you could do some fruit.. what about an itenerary for the week? Or the next couple days at least? Maybe some redemable massage tickets (for him from you) or something cute and private like that?

I hate to change the subject.. BUUUTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

but should I make javed Peanut butter cookies or Chocolate chip cookies? the pre cut frozen kind < I am too lazy to roll the dough >

I was thinking of making a welcome home goody basket. what else should I put in the basket.

By the way anyone ever see a typo used so many times?

It's quite a typo to go from "the death certificate of my former husband" to "my divorce decree."

I'm not going to belabor this, JP. I have no reason to lie about that. I make a lot of typos. I've also made many posts about my first husband's death. So, take it as you will. Do I care? No, I don't.

For awhile, i was using real vanilla beans in my cooking. While it taste great, it's a bit expensive. We just recently got little packets of vanilla sugar from the local ME groccery store. The cookies that are sitting on the stove cooling at this moment are really really tasty.

This was a nice thread before you guys decided to derail it. I'll go back to the topic. You can continue to judge me in ways you don't like to be judged. I'm your nonchalant target for the evening, and on.

Have fun!

There is no reason to lie about anything. The bottom line is if someone is Southern, so are you. If someone is Native American, so are you. If someone is Moroccan, so are you. If someone is Palistinian, so are you. Time and time again you have changed your story and now people are catching on. You change things to make them work in your favor, as proven.

even if there was alcohol in the vanilla - it cooks out. I thought so anyways.

course I did not know vanilla had alcohol.
