On the 3rd day of Christmas Nathan's true love gave to him....
3 Lindor chocolates - his favourite!
There's actually a little story to go along with this one. I thought this day would be the easiest of all days. Lindor chocolates are Nathan's favourite and they come in these cute packs of 3, so this was the first one I thought of. Easy! So I thought.
I could not find them anywhere!

I was sure I had seen them at Walmart, but Friday I looked everywhere - the seasonal chocolate section, the check out aisles, the express checkout aisle (whilst proclaiming "I'm not cutting in line, I'm just looking for something!"). Nada.
So, when we drove home I checked the local grocery...nothing. I checked the gas station....nope. I phoned the local flower/balloon/gift store....no. She suggested a different grocery/gas station in town so I tried there....nothing.
Yesterday was date night and, as is our custom, we went for dinner, then to the book store, and then to a movie. While we were at the bookstore I snuck out and went to go look for these chocolates at Target. Nothing. So, finally I decided to just buy a bigger package and that I would take 3 out and package them as the gift. Course, now I had another dilemma - I only had my small purse along, so how would I hide this purchase for the rest of our date? So, I opened up the bag and crammed all the chocolate into my purse and tossed the packaging. Walking back to the bookstore I passed a Shopper's Drug Mart. Decided I may as well look. Sure enough - there they were, and they were even on sale! Argh!

So, I bought them.
And the extra Lindor's are just bonus. :)
Fa la la la la, la la la laaaaaaaa.
