Bucket List

My Girlfriend and I were sitting on the couch watching TV and an ad came on for a cooking show. It was Nigella and she was making a cheesecake. My girlfriend is a pretty good cook but never got into the more complicated recipes. She has always wanted to make a cheesecake.

Girlfriend: "I need to add that to my bucket list."

Me: "What? Making a cheesecake?"

Girlfriend: "Yeah"

Me: "You really want to add THAT to your bucket list? Aiming a little low aren't you?"

Girlfriend: "I mean, just this year's bucket list."

Me: "What? Oh, right, all the things you want to do before you die at the end of this year?"

Girlfriend looked at me with an expression of genuine confusion.

I'm not sure she gets the concept of a bucket list.
