Old Cronies & Cat Food

[ozbound]

A very traditional elderly woman was enjoying a good game of bridge with her girlfriends one evening. "Oh, no! I have to rush home and fix dinner for myhusband! He's going to really ticked if it's not ready on time!" she exclaimed

suddenly.



When she got home, she realized that she didn't have enough time to go to the supermarket, and all she had in the cupboard was a wilted lettuce leaf, an egg,

and a can of cat food. In a panic, she opened the can of cat food, stirred in the egg, and garnished it with the lettuce leaf just as her husband pulled up.



She greeted her husband and then watched in horror as he sat down to his dinner. To her surprise, the husband really enjoyed his dinner.

 "Darling, this is the best dinner you have made for me in forty years of marriage. You can make this for me any old day."



Needless to say, every bridge night from then on, the woman made her husband the same dish. She told her bridge cronies about it and they were all horrified.



"You're going to kill him!" they exclaimed.



 Two months later, her husband died.



The women were sitting around the table playing bridge when one of the cronies

said, "You killed him! We told you that feeding him that cat food every week would do him in! How can you just sit there so calmly and play bridge knowing you murdered your husband?"



The wife stoically replied, "I didn't kill him. He fell off the mantel while he was licking his butt."

I sent this joke to a friend, who after reading it, called me and said "do you think I could get away with trying that at home?"  Then she remembered that all she has at home is dog food so, "think that'd work?"  



My reply was "well it might work, but then DH might really like better, cause you know what dogs like to lick".  



We both just cracked up over the whole thing - then I realized Bossie was standing behind me with a very confused look on his face.  



Since all he heard was my side of the conversation, it's no wonder he was puzzled.  Anyway after I told him the joke and relayed what my friend had said, he laughed so hard I thought he was gonna fall in the floor.
