Over breakfast one morning, a woman said to her husband, «I’ll bet you don’t know what day this is.»
«Of course I do,» he answered as if he was offended, and left for the office.

The woman couldn’t wait for her husband to come home.
«First the flowers, then the chocolates and then the dress!» she exclaimed.
