The Engagement Tale!!!

It all began with whining about banana pudding and the lack of finding a measuring cup.

One night it was decided that Scott & Amanda were going to have banana pudding. The reality is Scott wanted it and Amanda was making it-isn't that they way things seem to go?

As Amanda was happily making the pudding she couldn't find a measuring cup. Calling out to Scott, who was looking for a DVD in his living room, asking for a measuring cup Amanda gets an interesting response. Silence.

Scott hurries to the kitchen and shoos Amanda out while he searches. Amanda is calling out that she can just eyeball how much water is needed and that it isn't a big deal. Scott however is determined to search and not have Amanda in the kitchen. Obviously, you know where this is going however poor Amanda was clueless.

Scott tells her it is okay for her to come in the kitchen. Turns out he did not have a measuring cup and he just used a 16 oz cup for the water and took over making the banana pudding. That was not okay by Amanda who again insisted she could have just eyeballed it.

After completing the pudding, Scott laid out four Gladware containers and handed Amanda the box of Nilla Wafers; which she in turn slammed down on the stove.

"I can make this the best banana pudding ever," said Scott.

"Nothing can make this the best banana pudding ever," Amanda replied as she turned around and found Scott with a ring box and getting down on one knee.

Stunned Amanda said, "I was wrong, this is the best banana pudding ever!" (Scott has definitely found a keeper-a woman who admits when she is wrong!)

"Amanda, will you marry me?"

"YES!!" Emphasized with the a kiss.

Amanda even managed to barrel through and eat banana pudding with Scott. The next day he found out she hates banana pudding.

Written for Amanda & Scott with love from Becca.
