The patient wife at dinner

In a restaurant a waiter delivered two entrees, two main courses and two desserts to an elderly couple and he is fascinated when the man tucks into his meal showing every sign of satisfaction while his wife doesn’t touch a morsel and just sits patiently watching him.

Cautiously, he approaches their table.

“Excuse me madam,” he says, “I can’t help but notice that you haven’t touched your meal. Is there anything wrong?”

The lady looks up, “Oh no, young man. It’s just his turn for the teeth.”
