"Pancakes"
I was cooking pancakes for my husband
but used too much flour & they turned
out a bit heavy. After we had eaten those
left over were being thrown away by my
husband when I stopped him as I wanted
to feed them to the birds.
"Don't," my husband said. "They will not
be able to fly!"
*********************************************
"Stuffed?"
Soon after the newlyweds came back from
their honeymoon, the bride cooked her first
chicken.
When the husband began to carve it he
asked: "Did you stuff it, dear?"
"Oh, I didn't have to stuff it," she replied. "It
wasn't hollow."

"The Efficiency Expert"
An efficiency expert concluded his lecture with
a note of caution. "You don't want to try these
techniques at home."
"Why not?" asked somebody from the audience.
"I watched my wife's routine at breakfast for
years," the expert explained. "She made a lot of
trips between the refrigerator, stove, table and
cabinets, often carrying a single item at a time.
One day I told her, 'Hon, why don't you try
carrying several things at once?'"
"Did it save time?" the person in the audience
asked.
"Actually, yes," replied the expert. "It used to
take her 20 minutes to make breakfast. Now
I do it in seven."
