WIFE writes:
My husband heard on the radio that banana peels were edible. Later, I was eating a soup he prepared when he revealed he had put banana peel in it. Please tell my husband to stop this. (P.S.: Since I first wrote you, he put pumpkin in my oatmeal, sprinkling it with cinnamon so I wouldn’t notice.)
One might be tempted to dismiss your husband’s pumpkin-spicing your oatmeal as a seasonal joke. But banana-peel soup is a gag in every sense: both prankish and revolting. You deserve to eat food in your own home without fear that it has been laced with compost. And while that oatmeal sounds as if it could actually be pretty good, sneaky is never delicious. Here’s a hint for newly engaged couples: Never dose your partner’s meals with anything, no matter what the radio tells you to do. This should be part of your vows, honestly.
