Overheard last night

As I was pouring out my woes to Michael:

Me: So I'm just feeling very overwhelmed by all the looming responsibilities.
Michael: I'm sorry, Love. What can I do to encourage you?
Me: Well, you can always say encouraging things.
Michael: Oh, babe, you are so pretty!

Regarding a new recipe for coffee cake, which didn't turn out as sweet as hoped but which I am trying to get eaten for breakfasts as it is very nutritious:

Me: I saw that you ate some more coffee cake this morning. Thank you!
Michael: Did you eat some too? How did you serve it up?
Me: Well, I just had it plain, but I think if you warmed it up and spread butter on it, it would be very palatable.
Michael: How do you like it?
Me: It depends on your perspective. As coffee cake, it's not that great, but as a zucchini muffin, it's quite good.
