Four-course meal

Jack (proud of himself for getting into work early and coming home early): I came home early today.
Laura (wanting to share in the joy): Yeah, and I cooked a four-course meal!
Jack (thinking of the cream-of-wheat and peas they had for dinner but not wanting to sound critical): Was it four?
Laura: Well, there were four bowls on the table...if you count the tub of butter.

I told you I'd be back! I love your blog! And your wife!! I am touched that you are willing to share your lives with all of us! I finished reading all of your entries just now. It's like coming to the end of the 3rd book in a series and the next one isn't out yet. MORE PLEASE!!!!

Thank you for your comments and encouragement. I showed your comments to my wife and said, "See? Your fans love you! And they want more!"

But Laura said, "No. Tell them I'm retired. From now on, I'm only going to speak in 2-syllable sentences."

I guess she doesn't handle fame very well.
