Efficiency

I watched my wife's routine at breakfast for years.

She made lots of trips to the refrigerator, stove, table and cabinets, often carrying just a single item at a time.

'Honey,' I suggested, 'Why don't you try carrying several things at once?'"

It did save time.

It used to take her 20 minutes to get breakfast ready. Now I do it in seven.
