A husband asked his wife
A husband asked his wife, “Do you need anything from the grocery store?”
She replied, “Yes. Please get milk, eggs, bread, butter, tomatoes, cheese, and chicken.”
He grabbed his keys and said, “Got it.”
At the store, he remembered everything perfectly.
He returned home proudly carrying several bags.
His wife looked inside.
“Where’s the chicken?”
The husband froze.
“You said chicken?”
“Yes.”
He looked disappointed. “I thought you said cheese.”
She stared at him.
“You remembered seven things and forgot the chicken?”
He nodded. “I’m sorry.”
She smiled and said, “It’s okay. Next time, I’ll write the list down.”
He replied, “That would help.”
She laughed. “I did. It was in your hand when you left.”
He looked down at his empty hand.
“Apparently, I forgot the list too.”
