“Always sure she was right, my mother-in-law showed up one day with a secret meal plan.” We ate it even though we didn’t know what was in it. It was our anniversary the next morning, and I woke up with pimples all over my face. I screamed at myself in the mirror when I saw how bad I looked for the event.
