My friend, Betty, is truly younger than her years. Part of her secret, I believe, lies in the humor she finds in living. So in celebration of April 1, here are some food funnies from Betty and others who brighten my life:
_Wine pairing rules for caveman in the Stone Age: "If it tries to eat you, serve with red. If it runs away, serve with white."
_An elderly couple had dinner at another couple's house. After the meal, the wives went into the kitchen.
The two gentlemen were talking and one said, "Last night we went out to a new restaurant and it was really great. I would recommend it very highly."
The other man said, "What is the name of the restaurant?"
The first man thought and thought and finally said, "What is the name of that flower you give to someone you love? You know ... the one that's red and has thorns."
"Do you mean a rose?"
"Yes, that's the one," replied the man. He then turned towards the kitchen and yelled, "Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we went to last night?"
_Why did the pig go into the kitchen? He felt like bacon.
_Two robins are sitting in a tree. "I'm really hungry," says the first one.
"Me, too," says his pal. "Let's fly down and find some lunch."
So they fly to the ground and find some worms. After eating their fill, the first robin says to his friend, "I'm so full I don't think I can fly back up to the tree branch."
"Me neither," says the second robin. "Let's just lie here and bask in the sun."
So they fall asleep and a big tomcat sneaks up and gobbles them down.
After his meal, he washes his face and says with satisfaction, "I just love baskin' robins!"
As Betty would say, "You don't stop laughing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop laughing."
