Pungent Romance

(My husband is in the kitchen and, after much coaxing, has finally convinced me also to come in, too. I immediately walk over and put my arms around his waist. I’m short enough that my head just barely reaches my husband’s shoulders.)

Husband: “I love you.” *puts his arms around me and squeezes tightly*

Me: “I love you, too.”

(I sigh happily and smile then pause as I realize something is off.)

Me: “But, you know what, babe? You didn’t put on deodorant today. I can tell because you smell funny.”

(I squeeze him harder and attempt to snuggle into his chest.)

Husband: *shoving me away* “Nope, you said I smell funny. Romantic moment is over!”
