Half a Cake...

A woman in our diet club was lamenting that she had gained weight.
She'd made her family's favorite cake over the weekend, she reported,
and they'd eaten half of it at dinner.

The next day, she said, she kept staring at the other half, until
finally she cut a thin slice for herself. One slice led to another, and
soon the whole cake was gone. The woman went on to tell us how upset
she
was with her lack of willpower, and how she knew her husband would be
disappointed.

Everyone commiserated, until someone asked what her husband said when
he found out. She smiled. "He never found out. I made another cake and
ate half!"
