The TWIRP Invite

The princess decided to invite her "friend" (not allowed to date until 16 so...) to TWIRP (The Woman Is Required to Pay).  There was much discussion about how best to ask him.  She wanted it to be clever.  I wanted it to be cheep!  Eventually we were both happy.  

They have a running joke where he tells her to, "Make me a sandwich!".  He even has a  t-shirt that says that.  I think it comes from a tv show or movie.  Anyway she usually tells him to make her a sandwich.  She's having none of this!  But it was the perfect way to invite him to TWIRP.  She made him a sandwich of PB&J (really just a pinch of jelly as we were almost out).  She put it in a bag, that when in a box, which went inside another box, and then another box.  There was much bubble wrap and tissue paper and the boxes were all wrapped multiple times.  We drove to his house (she was in contact with his mom to make sure he was home), as she planned to leave it on the front step, ring the doorbell, and run back to the car.  But his mom called when we were minutes away to tell her he'd just gone outside.  Yikes!  She called him back in the house, and the princess was able to successfully complete her mission.


 "Merry Early Christmas Andrew.  Feel free to open it now."

Attached to the sandwich (on the right of the photo) is a note that reads: 
The dream has finally come true. 
 I've made this sandwich especially for YOU.  
Now my only request would be dinner and dancing with the BEST.  
TWIRP with me?

As luck would have it, he said YES!  The hunt for the perfect dress is complete.  Shoes are next.  Stay tuned...
