I looked at my wife and thought she was being very romantic. Her lips were puckered. Alas she had forgotten to sweeten the lemon juice.

No poner los ojos o fruncir el ceño a mí.

Don't roll your eyes or frown at me.

No me pongas los ojos en blanco o me frunzas el ceño a mí.

To roll one's eyes --- Poner los ojos en blanco --- like when you look up, you can see the white of one's eyes.
