Thanks to reader MaryLou for today's food funny:
One afternoon a wealthy lawyer was riding in the back of his limousine
when he saw two men eating grass by the road side. He ordered his
driver to stop and he got out to investigate. "Why are you eating
grass?" he asked one man.
"Well, we don't have any money for food," the poor man replied.
"Oh, what a shame. Just come along with me."
"But sir, I have a wife with two children!"
"Bring them along! And you over there," he says pointing to the other
man, "You come with us too!"
"But sir, I have a wife with FIVE children!" the second man answered.
"That's OK, bring them as well!"
So they all climbed into the limo, which was no easy task, even for a
lawyer's limo. Once underway, one of the poor fellows says, "Sir, you
are too kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you."
The lawyer replied, "No problem, you'll like it. The grass at my home
is about a foot tall!"

This truly is one of my favorite sandwiches, and if you trim the
crusts and cut the finished sandwiches into triangles, they also make
a wonderful addition to a brunch sideboard.
The Chef's Favorite Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
1/2 cup (125 ml) bleu cheese, crumbled
1 - 2 Tbs (15 - 30 ml) mayonnaise
8 slices rye bread
1/4 cup (60 ml) chopped walnuts
Butter
Combine the bleu cheese with just enough mayonnaise to hold it
together and make it spreadable. Spread onto 4 slices of bread,
sprinkle with the chopped walnuts, and top with the remaining slices
of bread. Heat the butter in a skillet over moderate heat and fry the
sandwiches until golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 2
minutes on each side. Serves 4.
