Poisson d'Avril

Spiff loves a good prank, so April Fool's Day is right up his alley. I, on the other hand, am not a prankster. Spiff usually doesn't act on his tricksy tendencies to me, it doesn't occur to me to be wary on a day like today.

This morning, I walked in on Spiff cutting out this little gem:
If you're anything like me, you would ask him, "What are you doing?" He would answer, "Just a project for school." And you'd sort of believe him, and promptly forget about it.

Then, when the mother of your only piano student pulls this off your back at 4:45 in the afternoon...
...you realize that your dear, sweet husband got you! He really got you! I didn't suspect a thing, and I had been wearing a fish on my back all day long! Also, my 14-yr-old piano student had to explain to me the French tradition of sticking a paper fish on someone's back on April Fool's Day, since she learned about it at school today, and I had no idea about the significance of the paper fish I had been donning.

So, congratulations to Spiff on a great little prank. Here is what he got for dinner (keep in mind that every time I ask him what he would like for dinner, he very helpfully answers, "Beans").:
