The best keep secret to a long lasting relationship.
When I was a child my grandma spent countless hours in the kitchen cooking food that was fit for kings.

But one day she was taking clothes off the close line outside and forgot about the pie in the oven and unfortunately didn't have the ingredients to bake another, so she took the pie out and let it cool, and set a big piece of pie in front of my grandpa.
Out of curiosity I stuck around to see what my grandpa would say.

But to my astonishment he ate every morsle of the piece of pie and asked me how school was treating me.
Then I heard my Grandma apologize to him for the way the pie turned out.
Till this day, I'll never forget his response.

"Honey, this is one of the best pies I've ever had."
Later, I asked my Grandpa if that was the truth. He said "Come here my boy" as he put his arm on my shoulder and said,

“Your grandma had a long day and after 43 years together I know when she's tired."
"I could care less about the pie being burnt, but if I had chosen to say something negative about the pie it could hurt her feelings."

We all make mistakes, but we shouldn't focus on those mistakes, rather support those whom we truly love.

Don't forget that good deeds don't go unpunished.

We do good things because we choose to, reality and recompense be damned.

Back in San Diego, at least 26 years ago Mr. Wonderful's family was having a pot luck dinner. One sister in law brought cookies and asked what he thought. Him: "They're a little dry." Maybe he can't help himself as he's a consummate baker...but I was appalled that he'd be that honest. And yes, I let him know.

Great story from your Grandpa.
