    There Are 2 Pans of Brownies On The Counter

    with walnuts. I am not allowed to eat them. They are for a party. I wonder if my wife would believe a mouse did it?

          Hmm... we do have two dogs. Do ya think she'd believe it if the pieces were cut with a knife?

            There would never be two pans of brownies on the counter at my house. This is because, by the time the second one hit the counter, the first one would be gone...

              A thoughtful wife would make THREE pans, 2 for the party and 1 for her husband, kids, and pets.

              If you point this out to her in a sensitive way, I'm sure this will have an impact on your relationship...

                Chocolate is bad for dogs. Bad for husbands too if the little lady says they are.

                  I wonder if brownies or lack thereof are grounds for divorce.

                    Which is why there are only 2 pans and not 3.

                      Yeah, just don't cut a square out of it. Instead nibble a little hole in it and blame it on the mouse. Then she'll say it's ruined because a mouse got in it. You can step up at that point and offer to dispose of the whole mouse-contaminated pan. Take it out to the workshop, cut them up, put them on a silver platter, and bring the pan back. You'll be a hero.

                        On second thought, what kind of party is it that needs TWO brownie pans? That second pan was obviously FOR YOU! Don't ask, just take what's yours.

                            When asked if you ate the brownies, simply reply "What brownies?"

                              Just be sure you've brushed and rinsed well. Nothing like a little brownie stuck to a tooth to prove you did it.
