Food Joke

The lesson [My thanks to Stan C for the following] Hannah is frying some eggs for her Sam’s breakfast when he suddenly enters the kitchen and goes over to the cooker. "Careful with the eggs," Sam says, "be careful …. Now put in some more butter …. Oy veh, you`re cooking too many eggs at once …. There’s too many of them …. So turn them already, turn them now …. We need some more butter, but where are we going to get more butter? …. They`re going to stick …. I said they’re going to stick …. Careful …. I said be careful …. Are you crazy? …. You never listen to me when you`re cooking, never …. Hurry up, turn them now …. Don`t forget to salt them, you know how you always forget the salt …. Use the salt now, use the salt, the salt, I said." Hannah stares at him, "What on earth is wrong with you this morning? Don’t you think I know how to fry a couple of eggs?" Sam calmly replies, "I just wanted to show you, dear, what it feels like when I’m driving with you in the car."
