Eggs-pert Cook

(My husband and I are at my parents for a long weekend. My mom (who really can’t cook) has been making every meal all weekend. It’s now Sunday around brunch time. My husband walks into the kitchen to find my mom about to make scrambled eggs, but in the microwave.)

Husband: *to my mom* “You’ve done so much for us this weekend. Let me finish this up. You go out and get started on brunch.”

(My mom heads out to the dining room and makes herself a bagel. My husband makes scrambled eggs on the stove, brings them to the dining room table, and sits down. We all eat, and my dad speaks up.)

Dad: *to my mom* “These are the best eggs you’ve ever made!”
