Here's a cute one from reader Susie:
A little girl was wearing one of those Medical Alert bracelets.
Someone asked her what the bracelet was for. She replied, "I'm
allergic to nuts and eggs."
The person asked, "Are you allergic to cats?"
The girl said, "I don't know... I don't eat cats."

This recipe is so ridiculously simple and wonderfully tasty that it
just might become a standard in your "I don't feel like cooking
tonight" repertoire.
Broccoli and Pasta Soup
4 - 6 cups (1 - 1.5 L) chicken or vegetable broth
1 small head broccoli (about 1 lb, 450 g), coarsely chopped
1/2 - 1 cup (125 - 250 ml) small pasta shape such as ditalini,
acine di pepe, stars, or alphabets, cooked according to the
package directions and drained
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Bring the broth to a simmer over moderate heat and add the broccoli.
Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender. Add
the cooked pasta and season with salt and pepper if necessary. Serve
with Parmesan cheese. Serves 4 to 6.
