We were out of smoked paprika so I bought two new spice shakers with it. My fiancée was having trouble opening them (there is a little paper wall in between) so she asked for help. I opened it and removed the paper thing so she could cook lunch with it.

A few hours later, I was making dinner, I opened our spice cabinet and saw the two shakers. One was emptier than the other so I used that one. However, when I tried to season, it didn’t work. I examined it and saw that it was sealed by this paper thing. My first thought was to try the other one but to my surprise that one was also sealed.

I asked my gf just to make sure where she had put the one I had opened for her. She told me the spot and (of course) it had to be one of the two. I mean one was even emptier.

I called my gf over and showed her the shakers. She was totally confused. Since she has never played pranks on me and is a pretty bad liar, I’m 100% sure it wasn’t a joke. Plus, those paper things are always stuck on pretty firmly and we don’t have any glue in the house.
