Technically, the standard options for second wedding anniversary gifts are either cotton or china (???), but George Clooney sprung for something completely unorthodox: tomatoes, meatballs, and a whole lot of gluten.
"It's very big news. Very, very big celebration—fireworks," the formerly reluctant dad said in an interview with E!. "Okay, I made dinner."
And not even something elaborate from a Thomas Keller cookbook, which makes sense why Amal's "never quite impressed" with her husband's cooking. "If I slap something together—spaghetti and meatballs—she doesn't know that it comes in a jar, so I can just fool her with that one."
Sure, sure. But nobody ever really expects the trophy wife to even know how to boil water, right?
