Lesli's Hope Chest

So, the other day I made a comment to Lesli about her 'Hope Chest'. She responded that it wasn't a 'Hope Chest' but a 'Cedar Chest'. I responded that they are also called, 'Hope Chests' because you put all of your hopes and dreams in them. She said that only 'girlie girls' called them hope chests. She said that they say, "Oh I love this wedding cake. I'm going to put this picture of a wedding cake in my 'Hope Chest' and then someday when I get married I'll have this wedding cake." She responded that she has her grandma's old quilts in her 'Cedar Chest'. Then I remembered Lesli's deep freeze, freezer in the garage...full of dead animals that she 'hopes' to mount someday. I assured her that if that's what a 'Hope Chest' is...is something you put all of your hopes and dreams in then her deep freeze IS her HOPE CHEST. She's always saying how someday she's going to mount this or that and then have a whole room in her house that is just full of mounted animals...kind of like a forest scene. She talks about HOW she's going to mount them and what sort of scenery she is going to put them in...and how cool will that be! "That's the 'DREAM' Debbie." She says that all the time. "That's the DREAM." It made her so mad. Now I call her freezer full of dead animals...her HOPE CHEST! HA! I seriously think I'm so funny! (maybe you have to know Lesli to appreciate the humor in this..but I think I'm a riot!) Pretty clever, huh?
