A newlywed couple moves into their new home. The husband, trying to impress his wife, tells
her, “Honey, I’ll cook us a special dinner tonight!” He grabs the cookbook and starts flipping
through the pages, looking for the perfect recipe. Suddenly, he exclaims, “Ah-ha! Here it is! The recipe for a happy marriage!”
Intrigued, his wife leans over to see what it says. The husband starts reading, “First, you need a
dash of patience, a pinch of understanding, and a cup of compromise…”
His wife interrupts, “That sounds wonderful, dear! But what’s the cooking time?”
The husband grins and replies, “Oh, it’s a lifelong recipe, my love!”
