MY HUSBAND THREW $20 IN MY FACE AND DEMANDED A THANKSGIVING FEAST.
Two days before Thanksgiving, my husband Mike slid a $20 bill across the table with a smug grin.
"Here, make Thanksgiving dinner with this," he said, all proud of himself.
I laughed, thinking it was a joke. “Mike, $20? That won’t even cover a turkey. And your mom, dad, and brothers are coming too!”
He shrugged. “Well, Mom always made amazing dinners with no money. Figure it out. Don’t embarrass me in front of my family.”
I stared at him, my blood boiling. After years of hosting his family, cooking, cleaning, and bending over backward, THIS was the thanks I got?
I was done. Of course, I played the dutiful wife, nodding and saying I’d handle it. But secretly, I used my own savings to plan the most unforgettable Thanksgiving his family had ever seen—with a little “surprise” for dessert. ⬇️
