Here's a little practical joke I played on Cardy.

We are constantly teasing and playing jokes - mostly at my expense. I've come home to witch masks hanging from the garage door, fake rats on the hood of my car, etc, etc. Well, last week I made some sugar cookies for Easter. As I was dying the frosting to make a nice pink color, a drop of red food coloring landed on my counter. I quickly wiped it up using my finger and I realized how much it looked like fresh blood. Of course, my first thought was to wash it off before it stained my hands but then I realized I could use it to my advantage.

I put another droplet on my finger and ran up the stairs shouting to Cardy I had cut my finger ::wink, wink:: I was holding on to my hand as I entered the room and put on my best terrified face. He took one look at the "blood" and jumped up. I have never seem him jump up so fast in my life! He was generally very concerned and immediately wanted to know how and what knife I was using. I couldn't contain myself! I just started laughing...he didn't think it was so funny.

I'm already dreading the retaliation!
