Great quote from my wife

Wife: Ah, Jack, you forgot something.

Jack: (rising from computer) Oh, I forgot to put the eggs in the water before boiling it.

Wife: (gingerly lowering eggs while avoiding hot water) Да. (da, "yes")

Jack: (standing uselessly by the refrigerator yet again) I'm sorry. You have Дурак (durak, "fool") for husband.

Wife: I don't have Дурак for husband. You have too intelligent woman for wife.
How do you argue with that? I don't.

Here's another, from a few months ago:
Jack: You can have the shrimp. I don't like them.

Wife: Noooo, none for you! They're too expensive!.
My wife makes a lot of clever remarks like these. I have to remember them
