Omigod!

Eeek! Ben just proposed!!! (I said yes - of course!)





...ohmigosh... it's such a shock...whoa... this ring feels so weird on this finger... and-

Wedding Dress.

Oh. My. God.

Okay. Time to start losing some flab.

Marry me?

Last night I had a List-epiphany. My boyf R and I have recently had a penchant for Allen's Snakes Alive, and I jokingly tied a yellow one round his ring finger and proposed. (JOKINGLY - don't get excited!) And it got me thinking about the Simpson's episode where Homer proposes to Marge with a fried onion ring.

What do you do when the urge to propose hits and you don't have a ring? Here's my list of recommendations...

1) A yellow Allen's jelly snake. (Nothing says "I love you" like snakes!)
2) Blu-tack
3) a pretzel
4) a daisy (just tie the stalk around your loved one's finger)
5) a texta (just draw it on! HINT: permanent marker = real commitment!)
6) the blue plastic ring from around the 2L milk bottle lid (Save the Bower Birds!)
7) a garbage bag tie
8) a keyring
9) a ring-pull from a drink can
10) sticky tape

Anyone proposed using any of these? Or anything else?
