"Sunday Dinner"
Little Yossi and his family were having Sunday
dinner at his Bubbie's house.
Everyone was seated around the table as the
food was being served. When little Yossi received
his plate he started eating right away.
"Yossi wait until we say our prayer."
"I don't have to." The boy replied.
"Of course, you do," his mother insisted. "We say
a prayer before eating at our house."
"That's our house," Yossi explained. "But this is
Bubbie's house, and she knows how to cook!

"Scared Alligators"
So one day, Gramma sent her grandson Johnny
down to the water hole to get some water for
cooking dinner. As he was dipping the bucket in,
he saw two big eyes looking back at him. He
dropped the bucket and high tailed it for Gramma's
kitchen.
"Well now, where's my bucket and where's my
water?" Gramma asked him. "I can't get any
water from that water hole, Gramma" exclaimed
Johnny.
"There's a BIG ol' alligator down there!"
"Now don't you mind that ol' alligator, Johnny.
He's been there for a few years now, and he's
never hurt no one. Why, he's probably as
scared of you as you are of him!"
"Well, Gramma," replied Johnny, "if he's as
scared of me as I am of him, then that water
ain't fit to drink!"
