Should I tell my wife the full story about these cookies if she does not ask?

Question

My ex wife Betty is a gourmet cook. Her pies, cakes, and cookies were to die for.  For the holidays, she always sends her friends and relatives a large box of cookies. Since we had a friendly divorce, she also sends one of her packages to me.

I really like these cookies and so does my current wife Joan.  Joan just thinks they are from one of my business associates that send out gifts for the holidays.  She just never ask me which business associate sent the cookies.  If she ask me I will tell her the truth as I will not lie to her. Joan shares these cookies with her friends when they come by out house to chat and EVERYONE remarks how great they are.

I am debating with myself if I should point out to Joan the cookies are from my ex wife.  I am afraid if I do, she will not want me to get them any more.  Joan enjoys these cookies as much as I do so do you think she will care that they came from my ex wife.

We never discuss my ex wife and Joan is not the jealous type.

WHAT SHOULD I DO IF ANYTHING? PLEASE HELP.

Lying the first time around was the worst part. Feeding the lie won't work either - one day she'll find out. Telling her now probably is going to p1$$ her off. You got yourself in a pretty bad position, but telling the truth is the best (wear a helmet) option.

Braveness implies to keep working on a relationship, to continuously seek solutions to  problems, and to keep a clear head through high pressure times.

If she asks, use your ex's business name. I think Joan would have asked by now if she really cared.
