A treat? My mind was swimming with the possibilities.
Might he bring me a cupcake? an icee? frozen yogurt? I couldn't wait.
An hour and a half later he returned and said "I was going to buy you a pumpkin cookie because they were on sale, but they were sold out. So I got you a Lynn Wilson burrito. Potato flavored."
A frozen burrito. What a treat!?? I told him that it was a sweet gesture, but he could take it to work with him.
Sometimes I wish I could be in Dan's brain so that I could see the way it works.

LOL! Oh my goodness I am laughing with you on this one. How many times have I thought the same thing with Brian. I used to get irritated when Mother's Day, birthday's, Christmas, Anniversaries, etc. came around. I'd get all excited in anticipation and then....."thanks honey". Now, I look forward to what he is going to come up with this time! Cuz he really does put a lot of thought into his "gifts" and that is what makes it so funny!! He actually took the time to think about getting me "a frozen burrito"!
That is SUPER funny, Megan. Good old Dan. He's a keeper.
All I can say is DITTO regarding Dave. Men truly are the strangest creatures.
That made me laugh right out loud....and I'm at work! That is truly priceless. Men....just makes you wonder.
I swear its an engineer thing!
That made my day! Oh Dan...
LOL! A frozen burrito for a treat!?!? Maybe he was thinking because it was cinco de Mayo and he wanted you to feel Mexican in your gorgeous blouse...
that just kills me----he's awesome.
That's hilarious. I especially like that it wasn't a potato burrito, but a potato-FLAVORED burrito. Only the best!
I tried to read this to my husband but couldn't get the words out I was laughing so hard. A potato flavored burrito...who would've guessed that could be a "treat." Not I, said Mary. Haha.
I have come up with THREE possible scenarios:
1) he was probably still imagining you in that mexican blouse get-up and thought, "well, i know how she really loves her Mexican food! I know! i'll get her one of these!"
2)
PA: Attention all [store] guests. The store will be closing in 5 minutes. Please bring all purchases to the register.
Dan's Brain: Doh! Five minutes? That is not possibly enough time to find my lovely wife a treat! [looks down]. Why looky here! A Burrito! And not just any burrito will do for my lovely wife! This is a Top-Of-The-Line Lynn Wilson Burrito! Oh and looky here! It's potato flavored! Perfect! cuz with all that other Mexican Food we've been eating lately, I would hate for my lovely wife to get all gassy. Truly, when she sees this, she will know I was thinking of her! Oh boy! and it's only 98 cents!
3) Dan's Brain: I saw what she did to me on Facebook! This potato flavored burrito is the perfect "revenge"! after all - she is expecting a "treat"...bwahahahahaha!
That is so hilarious. Only Dan...he's a keeper :)
potato FLAVORED? Like, strawberry flavored? Like they put in potato FLAVORING? I can see being stupid and blowing wild carbs on a cupcake. Even on a slurpee. But who would want to bust the bank for POTATOES?????
I think G's mind may have come from the same factory, though -
