MY HUSBAND THREW $50 AT ME AND SAID, "MAKE A LAVISH CHRISTMAS DINNER FOR MY FAMILY — DON'T EMBARRASS ME!"
Days before Christmas, my husband Greg tossed a crumpled $50 bill at me.
"Here," he said smugly. "Make a proper Christmas dinner. Don't embarrass me in front of my family."
I picked up the bill and stared at him, dumbfounded. "Greg, this won't even cover a turkey, let alone a whole dinner for eight people."
He shrugged, leaning casually against the fridge. "My mom ALWAYS managed. Be resourceful, Claire. If you're not up for it - just say so. But I'll have to tell my family not to expect much."
I clenched my fists, but instead of snapping, I smiled sweetly. "Oh, don't worry, Greg. I'll make it work."
For the next few days, I played the "dutiful wife" but it was part of my BIG REVENGE. I used my personal savings to prepare the most lavish Christmas dinner Greg's family had ever seen.
What Greg didn't know was that dessert would come with a "surprise" he'd never forget. ⬇️
