miss me, sweetheart?

My husband and I have been married for eight years. Recently, we made some changes in our lives. He lost 50 pounds and, after being a housewife since we got married, I got a job in a restaurant.

When I came home after my first day at work, I gave my husband a big hug.

He seemed to cling to me longer than usual.

"Did you really miss me that much today, sweetheart?" I asked.

"No," he replied. "But you smell so much like pancakes that I hate to let you go."
