It's been 22 years. Traditional gifts are copper.

At year 7 it's also copper. We got picture frames and other copper things.

This year, coincidentally, we both went with Moscow Mule sets. She got me copper plated tin cups, I got her lacquered fully copper cups.

Then I remembered she has a hard time with carbonation, so I also got copper wine glasses.

We both skimped on the gift wrap or other pleasantries. No time to get those kinds of things. Presentations were in the boxes things came shipped in. Seems par for the decade so far. Chuckles and drinks all around.

Everyone's healthy.
