Jon is doomed. No mater what he gets… it won’t be good enough. Liz’s line is an opener to an Engagement Ring. And it needs to be so big… you need to tote it around in a wheelbarrow!
Damn, that’s a good idea. I am getting my GF a cheese log for Christmas. And she won’t act like it’s a weird thing. Because I don’t date people who won’t be made happy by a gorram cheese block!
‘Tis the season to flood mailboxes with all those catalogues of cheeses, sausages, nuts, and other edibles that, I often wonder, does any one really eat? (Not unlike the fruit cake I received some years ago that’s still doing duty as a doorstop.)
Last Christmas I asked my wife what she wanted. She said “I don’t care. Just get me something expensive that I don’t even need.” So I signed her up for kidney dialysis.
Jon is doomed, doomed I tell you. (something special) A concept guaranteed to fail. No matter what does, or gets her as a gift, it will be wrong. Thus Jon is doomed, Doomed I tell you Doomed.
This year I have no idea for Mrs. Last year I had a jeweler friend design her a pendant. I gave him the parameters, up to 2 carat in VVSI diamonds, in white gold. I liked what he came up with. Mrs was bowled over. Walked by his shop a couple of weeks ago and see that he has duplicated it and is selling it in slightly different version this year.No problem for me, at the rate he charges me….he can duplicate all he wants.
Does Jon not realize that Liz could be lactose-intolerant? I hope that Jon has backup gifts ready to give Liz this Christmas. She does not need a hospital visit this Xmas and/or during this pandemic. Get it right, Jon! #whatishethinking :]

Better yet, give the cheese log to Garfield.

Sure is hard to think of a gift for that woman you love, isn’t it, Jon?

Give the cheese log to the mice Jon. But what are the chances he might actually do that?

I guess Jon is going to have to splurge on that pecan log.

What my wife is getting: 13 fewer trees in the front yard -$6k. Douglas fir, an invasive species that the lumber industry is totally dependent on.

Will Jon ever get her a ring? Only the Shadow knows…

Keep the cheese log and get her jewelry. You can never go wrong with jewelry.

My wife once complained, “So what am I supposed to get you for Christmas?”
“Um. I don’t know.” I wasn’t really thinking about getting something. Had 2 little boys to buy for. That was fun.
“Well,” she said. “You always get your husband slippers, but you don’t wear anything like that. You’re always barefoot!”

Jon will now trade it for a fruitcake. (He’s doomed, regardless)

They’ve been dating for a while. Perhaps she feels like he’s due to put a ring on it.

If you want to give her a log, you had better get her something expensive first.

It’s either the engagement ring (huge and fabulous) or a necklace made of diamonds!

Jon, just a word of advice here: Liz is speaking in woman-code. Do not take her literally if you want to live to see 2021!
Lightpainter Premium Member over 3 years ago
Wait a minute, Garfield; Jon got her a GOURMET cheese log! No worries.

Liz should have known better than to be coy with Jon, he’s just too clueless.

Excellent gift choice! In Wisconsin, a cheese log ( cheddar please) is a great gift, along with a six pack of good beer or bottle of wine. :)

A few Christmases ago I tried the trick on the Pandora teevee spot, putting a jewelry piece inside a new skillet, then wrapping it.
Gina fell for it hook, line, & sinker.

Very nice not “ugly” sweater, Liz!

That last part Liz said got me killed XD! But then Jon better suit something up or his romantic Christmas will fall to the pits.

Give Garfield the cheese log. For Liz, no hugging, no kissing, until she gets a wedding ring.
