Cuckoo For Couscous

A copious heap o' couscous

"Why did you buy two boxes of couscous, honey?"
"I thought one wasn't enough."
"It's enough."
"Are you sure?"
"Unless you're really in the mood for couscous."
"I am."
"So you want me to make both boxes?"
"Yes."
"Okay, but I'm pretty sure it's too much for the three of us."

A son's reaction 

"Ma! Holy sh*t! This is an insane amount of couscous."
"I know."
"Why did you make so much?"
"Daddy made me do it."

A hubby's reevaluation 

"I guess we didn't need this much couscous."
"Not so much."
