An elderly couple went to the doctor because they were both having trouble remembering things. After a quick check-up, the doctor smiled and said, “Nothing serious — you’re both just getting older. But you might want to start writing things down so you don’t forget.”
That night, while watching TV, the wife said, “Honey, I’d love a bowl of ice cream.”
“Sure thing,” said the husband, getting up.
“Wait,” she added. “The doctor said you should write things down — just so you don’t forget.”
He chuckled. “Nonsense. I can remember ice cream.”
“Okay,” she said. “But I’d also like strawberries on top.”
He nodded. “Ice cream with strawberries. Got it.”
“And a bit of whipped cream too, please,” she added.
Now slightly annoyed, he replied, “Ice cream, strawberries, whipped cream — I’ve got it!” and stomped off to the kitchen.
Twenty minutes later, he returned and proudly handed her a plate of bacon and eggs.
She stared at the plate for a moment and sighed, “I knew it… you forgot the toast.” 😂
