Y'all just aren't right!!!!
My DH gets me all the time...and then acts like he is fishing with a pole ( casting and reeling in)! He says "I got you hook, line and sinker"!
He has a very devious mind and he will pull stuff on anybody.
Once we had an egg customer ask if we had any of those green eggs, He said "sure", and went and got a dozen of them, and showed them to her. She asked how we got the chickens to lay colored eggs.
He told her that they didn't come out that way, they were really white, but he left them out in the sun, mold formed on them, and then he just brushes the mold off and the egg is colored.
She handed the eggs back to him and said "I don't believe I want these, but Thank You anyway".
He baits people, and they fall for his stories EVERY time. He is so convincing, that even when I know better, he'll still get me.
I cook all the time now, but when we first got together, I didn't. I needed to take a dish for a dinner at work, so he said he would make a pecan pie for me to take.
Well, I made the mistake of asking him if I could help him. He doesn't crush up any of the pecans, so when he poured the first pie into the shell, he said, "Yes, you can flip over the pecan halves that are not right side up."
I asked if he was serious, He said "Have you ever seen a pecan pie with the halves wrong side up?" Well, I never paid any attention to which way the pecans were laying in a pie...
so I flipped the pecan halves over so all of them were the same direction. I asked if he wanted me to do it to the next pie he had fixed, too.
He said "No, that way we can tell which pie you need to take to work and which one is for us" Satisfied me...then he added, "I just never seen anybody actually turn the halves over before".
It doesn't seem funny in print, but he thought it was hilarious. He told everybody he came across about it. He had told some people at a rodeo once, and a couple of months later, we had taken some rank horses to a buck-out a couple of hours away, to be tried as rodeo stock, and he was talking to a guy about his rope and asked if he could take it and show it me, cause I didn't believe him about what he had told me. That man said "After the pecan pie thing, I don't blame her not believing you".
I had never even heard this man's name before that night, and he knew about it.
He does this sort of thing all the time. I tell him, "It's not funny, unless everybody laughs", but he doesn't believe me. He says " You should have seen it from over here, it was funny"
