Harris said she had told Allan the previous night that she wanted tulips for Valentine's Day. "He wasn't paying attention," she recalled. "He just said 'Yes, I know.'" Allan Harris admitted he wasn't paying close attention to his wife's words and thought she was asking for turnips for her garden. "I went and got the bucket and put the turnips in the bucket that says 'I love you' on it," Allan Harris said. "I went in there, got her coffee -- and here you go!" The remorseful husband said he ended up also getting Nina some tulips, plus candy and balloons. Nina Harris said her husband is lucky that she likes root vegetables.
