    Does she have a birthday coming up? Anniversary? Better yet, buy your MdC and buy her some bath soap, then send her on a spa trip with it or some such. Maybe turn the house in to her own little spa for the day kind of thing, candles, relaxing music, some fruit & chocolate. Just have it all ready for her when she gets home one day then while she's in the tub soaking, cook her some dinner (Filet Oscar, perhaps)and ask her how she likes her fancy new french soap you got for her because you love her so much and since she's the world to you, she should get to experience the pleasure of fine European soap (you could probably sneak in a La Toja order with that, as well).

    See, Mrs Rearview would KNOW I was up to something if I did any of that.

    Tomorrow is my 26th wedding anniversary. You have to understand that after you have been married this long, you start to finish each others sentences. Which is a good thing (unless trickery is afoot!). Every ruse you gentlemen have come up with, while good, has been worn by time into a thin veil. COME UP WITH SSOMETHING WAAAAY BETTER IF YOU WANT TO BEDAZZLE SWMBO AT MY HOUSE>>>>LOL you guys are great, but keep trying please.

    Then just straight out tell her you would like to try this soap if she doesn't mind. I know the cost is outrageous but it is something that would make me happy. When she comes back with something that would make her happy you agree to it. Done.

    Ding Ding Ding Ding, Folks, we have a winner! Daryl, I like your thinkin'... the straightforward approach usually works the best. Guess I'll just have to man up and tell her. Thanks buddy!
