An amusing sketch of very real scenes which most of us would recognise, whether one is a wife or husband.
The bit about allergy to any other metal was great......especially since I have seen a very close relative use that ploy to extract gold instead of silver from a husband who, though rolling in lucre, thinks that jewelry is a waste of money!!

I am pleased that you enjoyed it Ms. Imran. I hope that you will critique in the future as well.

Entertaining, engaging and beautifully written - amazing 'Clarity' about the most 'basic' of issues!!!

Thank you for this lovely piece, RMor.

Thank you for reading and also the the kind comment.

Alas, I have not read (or even heard of) Thurber, but Wikipedia is certainly enlightening.

Is this another dig on our neembu?

Either way, nicely done with elements of Thurber's Walter Mitty..
