A man, in his carefree bachelor days, had been very fond of a Washington restaurant which specialized in waffles with honey. Year after year he had visited this place to get this very delectable meal, so when he married, he decided to take his wife there so they could share the pleasure together.
He did not tell her what was coming, merely ordering an excellent meal with two orders of waffles. The meal came, the waffles came but there were two small pitchers of near maple syrup, but no honey.
He called the waitress over and whispered loud enough for his wife to hear, “Where’s my honey?”
The waitress beamed intelligently, “She’s on vacation and will be back next week. “
