Drabble by Kevin Fagan for April 20, 2022

He shouldn’t have opened his mouth and talked her out of buying them.

He should buy three bags for himself without telling her.

Just hide them like my honey bunch does

Fudge cookies are my weakness, too.

I have a cache of goodies, my wife has her own cache. Fortunately, unlike Ralph, I also have self control.

This way she gets to be mad at him but he doesn’t get the cookies …

Translation: he’s already bought some and hidden them away.

Might as well buy them now. She looks mad anyway.

What husband would say No to buying cookies? Certainly not mine.

NOW Ralph shows restraint. Mark this date, June.
