Well, this may not be considered odd, just unusual. On our first Christmas together as a married couple, my husband gave me a pair of oven mitts...may have been a thoughtful gift but I was expecting jewelry or something more personal. I was even expecting to find something hidden in the mitts, but no such luck.
He and my Dad thought it was a great gift for a wife and it was....for a HOUSEwife. I was so disappointed!
Since then, my Christmas gifts from my husband have always made me happy!
