Cold comfort
Sometimes all you want from your partner is just a little care and attention. Going that little bit further, perhaps in giving you a compliment, or preparing you a tasty treat. It’s not exactly the taste of the dessert that matters but rather, how much effort you put into it.
However, it usually involves slightly more effort than simply placing the ice cream tub in a bowl and dropping it in your lap. This husband may have thought he was being helpful, but all this gesture really says is “I was too busy to dish up 2 scoops of raspberry ripple.”
