We got an anniversary card last year from our son - the old timey characters called each other babe and tiger - so we've been using that amidst laughter. One lady friend and I call each other chickie - and laugh when we say it. So it's pretty boring over here. <BR/>Neat post!MuseSwingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11999288873532715380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-82204015282909938942009-02-02T15:17:00.000-06:002009-02-02T15:17:00.000-06:00My hubby & I probably use "hon" or &...My hubby & I probably use "hon" or "honey" the most--which is evidenced when our kiddos play house and call each other that.

I refer to him mainly as baby or babe, but sometimes I throw in a 'hey, handsome' or 'hotstuff'. I call my cat Annie, Annie Pie, and Bennie is sometimes Bennie Boo. Or if he's shortened my husband's shoelaces by about seven inches, as he did this morning, he's Bad Bad Bennie or Biting Bennie.Laura Doylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14407229726272149440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-80591105743028328792009-02-02T02:24:00.000-06:002009-02-02T02:24:00.000-06:00I enjoyed reading this blog Steviewren.
