For months I hinted that I needed a new wedding ring, since I had developed an allergy to gold. On my birthday, while I was gardening, my husband asked me for gift suggestions. I held my hands up and said, "Well, you'll notice that my hands are bare."Later that evening I opened my present with enthusiasm. "Happy birthday," he said, as I unwrapped a new pair of gardening glove.

几个月以来，我一直在向丈夫暗示我需要一枚新的结婚戒指，因为我对黄金有点过敏。生日那天，我正在干园艺活时，丈夫问我想要什么礼物，我举起双手说：“嗯，你肯定看到了，我的两手都是光光的。”那天晚上，我满怀热情地拆开了丈夫送的礼物，“生日快乐！”他说。我打开一看：里面包着一双园艺手套。
