So for some reason today, I decided to search for Mennonite groups on Facebook. Well, there are plenty of them on Facebook. So I joined one group an started going through their members list. Man, did the names start bringing back memories of growing up; of going to church on Sundays and then afterwards going to someone's house and eating such good food and yapping/playing the day away. Then falling asleep on the car ride home. There were some posts that were written in low german and I was even able to read them; it put a grin on my face. So, someone had written a mennonite joke which I had to post here.
How many Mennonites does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Ten...One to screw in the light bulb and 9 women to prepare the food for the pot luck afterwards.
I had to giggle because it is so true; for any occasion there has to be food, food, and more food. Did I mention that there had to be lots of food? I did? Okay. The food might be simple but oh man, is it ever good. Yep, can definitely get fat on Mennonite food. Maybe that is why I got some (I mean a lot) of extra poundage around my hips because I learnt to cook from my mama. Now that I got myself good and hungry, I have to go hunt around the house to see if I hid any chocolate that I forgot about.
Chow!!!
