Here's a cute one from Rosemary Zwick:

While I was shopping for meat, fruit and vegetables, one of
the salespeople came running up to me. “I just saw someone
driving off with your BMW!”

“Did your try to stop him?”

“No,” said the clerk, “but don't worry. I got the license plate number!”

1/2 tsp (2 ml) ground cinnamon
1 pint (500 ml) fresh whole blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, or
