"We went to Chicago this weekend and had a wonderful dinner at Smyth. I proposed to Mia Khalifa and she said YES! The ring was hidden in a bowl of dried ingredients and came out as a new serving. Mia was too curious and too eager to taste so she started to eat the inedible ingredients. I told her not to do it and then I put the ring on the finger."
