Gift for a Birthday

A fellow was very much in love with a beautiful girl. One day she told him that the next day was her birthday. He told her he would send her a bouquet of roses... one for each year of her life.
That evening he called the local florist and ordered twenty-one roses with instructions that they be delivered first thing the next morning.
As the florist was preparing the order, he decided that since the young man was such a good customer, he would put an extra dozen roses in the bouquet.
The fellow never did find out what made the young girl so angry with him.

The wife says, "how about Hanzel and Gretel?  "Nah...they were white, her husband replied.  "Ok, how about Raggedy Ann and Andy?"  "No way! They're white too and have huge ugly freckles!"  So the wife tells her husband to think of something since he always has a smart remark for her choices.  So he thinks a bit and then pops up, " I got it! .We'll go as Heshey Bars!"  "Heshey bars?", replies his wife,"are you nuts!"  "Exactly! One with nuts, and one without!"
