"Just regaled my wife with a story about a grocery coupon that should have worked but didn’t but then the guy got it to work after all.

Don’t tell me the spark is gone."

Many more

Slightly off-topic, but my favorite part of having young adult children is the grocery store calls.

"I'm standing in the canned goods and I need to know what kind of tomato sauce you use."

"How do you make your vegetable soup?"

And my favorite call from my very, very smart son:

Him: "Mom, what's in chicken-and-rice?"

Me, knowing that he's asking about the seasonings and vegetables I use, but unable to resist being an azzhole: "Chicken. And rice."

OMG your "young adult" children are me with my mother! Also, your "chicken. and rice" is my mother!

Why yes, I did turn 50 in 2018, why do you ask?

We were young and northerners... After a trip to New Orleans, we ordered a package to make red beans and rice. Back home, we looked at the ingredients of rice, dried beans with spices and a little oil and wondered how the beans were ever going to get soft.

MrsTuner called up the ladies from the cookbook/store and asked about that, and the woman on the phone exclaimed:

Child?!? You gotta soak them beans!!
