Situation

Mary talks to her husband, John, over breakfast.

John: Good morning, dear.

Mary: Good morning, darling. Did you sleep well?

John: Yes, thanks. I slept like a log.

Mary: You're just in time for breakfast.

John: Good. What are we having?

Mary: The usual. I hope you have a good appetite.

John: I always have an appetite like a bear in the morning.

Mary: Great. Here's your coffee. Be careful! It's piping hot.

John: Thanks. May I have some sugar?

Mary: It's right in front of you, dear.

John: Oh, of course. How silly of me!

Mary: Have some toast. The milk is in the refrigerator. Help yourself.
