I can joke about something being wrong with her, "more for me", etc., but now I find myself having to sub in cashews in a recipe that calls for pistachios (we're making it for her cousin's Easter picnic).

Now don't get me wrong; I like cashews, but pistachios are the money nut, and part of why I was looking forward to making this recipe. On the other hand, if the dish isn't a hit, I can throw her under the bus for her terrible nut preferences.

I fear this deletion of pistachios from my regular diet moving forward may break me. Can I possibly sustain?

The food here is terrible. My steak was so tough it attacked my coffee and the coffee was too weak to defend itself.

If they picked you and don't like green nuts. Then they have great taste.

If that was me I would make the dish like I normally do and just tell her not to eat it. You're making it for everyone else there, not her. You don't need to cater everything to her tastes.

Aw, shucks! (Is "aw, shucks" the correct response here? Am I reading it right?)

This is the first time making the dish, and I want her to try it for the first time with me. Plus, I kind of am just making it for the two of us - I don't really care that others will have any.
