An elderly couple are watching TV in their living room. the wife asks her husband if he would get her a bowl of ice cream. She tells him to write it down so he doesn't forget what he went into the kitchen for. The old man tells her not to worry because he has it. On the way to the kitchen, the wife tells him she would like some strawberries on top as well, and tells him to write it down so he does not forget. Not to worry, says the old man.
As he moves toward the kitchen again, the wife tells him to put some whipped cream and nuts on it as well. Again she tells him to write it down so he will not forget. The old man is now exasperated, tells her he has it, and goes into the kitchen.
About twenty minutes later, he returns to the living room and hands her a plate of bacon and eggs. The old lady looks at it for a minute, turns angrily to her husband and says "Where's my toast?"
