My husband was so evil last Christmas! To give you some background, my husband just turned 30. For his birthday, his best friend gave him 10 pounds of pistachios, knowing that he likes them and would eat them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if he could. During that same time period, our children (all under the age of 
were going through a disrespectful spell, and nothing we did seemed to make any difference. Okay, fast forward a couple months to Christmas. For weeks he told our three children that, if they were disrespectful, Santa would leave them coal instead of presents. Usually, the kids would listen for a while and then say, “Yeah right, Dad.” So, Christmas morning rolls around and I come into the living room to find crying children. All of the presents were gone and their stockings were filled with coal. Except, it wasn’t coal. The stockings were completely filled with black pistachios! My evil husband had gone to the store and purchased spray paint, then spent most of the early morning hours turning part of his pistachio collection into fake coal. Our children were VERY good after that.
