Who Needs Flowers?

Super Bowl Sunday always brings lots of interesting entertainment.  The football, the food and the commercials all are excessive.  I loved watching Seinfeld and his car commercial, the dog and the dorritos, in fact I laughed out loud at the Voice's ad with Betty White.  Teleflora had an ad that caused some controversy implying that if a man were to get his woman a bouquet of flowers that she would do anything for him.  This suggestion was presented by a gorgeous supermodel wearing next to nothing and the tag line was, "yes, it's that simple." 

Beyond the whole conversation of what is or is not appropriate for family time television (I think this was hugely inappropriate for my little boys who happened to NOT be paying attention at the time) I did snicker, look at my husband and say, "yep, it's just that simple."  We had a good laugh about it.  I happen to love fresh flowers, whereas my husband thinks they are a waste of money.

This morning while I was out walking my husband picked up the house, cleaned up the kitchen and straighted up the whole main floor.  Yah...who needs flowers?  Just do me some housework!  ;)
