Apparently "It's in a glass dish on the bottom shelf on the right side"

Isn’t specific enough instructions for a man to find a piece of leftover pie in the refrigerator.

Gotta love my guys.

Without any instructions.

What does that say about the food finding intelligence of both species?

It's always followed by, "never mind, I'll come find it".

All I can think of is that he's visualized it somewhere else so literally doesn't see it.

I’ve never marked them. So it’s always fun when someone asks to borrow something. My kids and grandkids ask me why don’t I mark them. I say to make sure you have to ask me and I can bug you to return them. Worst one is my granddaughter and son in law comes up next.
