    I missed the emoji in your title and thought this was going to be cute, then of course as reading it just gets worse and worse.

  3. My grandma had a few prints with similar sayings. I remember a similar one about children and one about military wives. They seemed cringey to me when I was a teenager and they still are weird now that I’m in my 40s.

    Lol I know the exact demographic that would find this β€œcute” 😝 My husband should be serving ME peaches and cream!

    Pro tip: he fits better in the cans if you cut him up first.

    Lol, I shared this same β€œrecipe” on a FB canning group and so many of the mods didn’t get the joke at all β€” β€œDon’t use outdated canning information,” etc. It was wild.

    I really don’t see what everyone is weirded out about. This was not “advice” it’s a joke written into the book for entertainment.

    My life is constantly dealing with misogyny because of the career I chose. That and a high percentage of assholes that exist. I might be the only one here but I liked this and thought it was cute. Loving someone is complicated. And staying together is work. This comes from love. I think it would be cute to have a how to preserve a marriage/ relationship. Also love word play what can I say

    “Can I help you, maam?”

    “Yes, I need a Ball jar that’s about 5’8″, please.”

    If only we could go back and prevent the heat bra burning I could be heels up with a stiff drink right now
