My wife hate's sea food except for shrimp. So a few years back I told her that we were going to have somes rings with our grilled burgers. I had bought some calamari rings, had them in the oven when she got home from work. After she had eaten the calamari, I asked her how the rings were, she said that they were good but had no onion taste.

I saran wrapped my parent’s toilet when I was about 10. Did not go over well. Now I mostly appreciate others’ pranks.

How devious. I like it, nothing damaged in the process. Did you clue her in or just think , nah. . .

Wow, that took a lot of planning and exquisite execution. *chef's kiss*

I get my wife every year. She is pretty gullible.  She is a big NU volleyball fan so I told her today that Cook retired.  A few years ago I told her I received a job offer in another town and we would have to move.  I set it up by telling her I had something important to tell her when she got back from the store.  My daughter started crying when I told them and I got slapped when I said April Fools.  I keep it simple and painless now.

No planning early 20s and too much alcohol.

Yeah, okay.... that certainly would explain the lack-of-planning and fearless execution, lol.

I did not tell her, she was a bit pissed, She said you told me we were having onion rings. And I said no, I told you that we were having rings. It took everything I had not to laugh as she ate them though.

This isn't an April 1st ordeal, but it's one I pulled off over mrs. cip.  It had to be back in 2017 or so, we still had Conlee's.  I wanted to have a surprise birthday party for her.  But how do you do that when I cook, she waitresses at the restaurant?  I lined up karaoke for that night and asked her to make all the sides for the salad bar.  Little did she know she was making all the salads for her birthday party!  It was the only way I could pull this one off.  Boy, was she surprised!  Not mad at all.  She's such a sweetheart!  I got bonus points when I sang this song to her.
