LIGHTSIDE
A rabbi, a priest and a pastor were all in a boat together fishing.
The pastor said to the others, “I think I am going to go over to that
shore and sit down.” So he gets out of the boat, walks across the
water and sits down on the shore.
Then, the priest says to the rabbi, “I think I am going to go over and
join him.” So, he does the same as the pastor and sits next to him on
the shore.
The rabbi thinks to himself, “well if they can do it, so can I” He
climbs out of the boat, but he falls right down in the water.
The pastor says to the priest, “do you think we should of told him
where the rocks were?”

AVOID

Which can cause choking. Foods that have been implicated include nuts
(alone or in other foods such as cookies), pieces of raw vegetables,
kernel corn, raw peas or beans, popcorn, hotdogs, berries and small
candies.
TIPS
If you are having trouble with brown sugar staying moist….try storing
it with a piece of bread inside.
For chocolate cakes try dusting the greased pans with cocaco instead
of flour.
If you have over salted soup, sauce etc…slice a raw potato in it, cook
for about 6-8 , then remove. The salty taste will disappear with the
potato.
