"Two Conversations at the Same Time" by Susan Pearl

 My husband ate lunch at a different town yesterday-

So today I asked him if he had a good lunch.

He said, "Well, the potato salad-", 

I interrupted, "Are there still some potatoes in the basement?"

He answered "Yes".

My husband patiently continued saying, "About the lunch-

In a loud voice I continued asking, "Does any of the potatoes in the basement have sprouts"?

He answered, "A few. Why? What do you want to make"?

I answered, "I was thinking of making a potato salad but since you just had some yesterday I will

   make potato soup".

'Sounds delicious"! he exclaimed.

I added, "I am so glad we had this conversation about what to fix for dinner. 

We should do this more often".
