i remember her laughing as she told me the story because it became so commonplace for him to bring out a basket of food and she would always act surprised and throw up her hands which made them both burst out laughing ; and him , he wanted so much to make every moment special that he began hiding the picnic blanket , and then a set of candles , and then a bouquet of flowers , and then two chairs to sit on , she said it was just hilarious and she loved it because he just had to make every moment special .
