Two elderly ladies meet at the launderette after not seeing one another for some time. After inquiring about each other’s health, one asked how the other’s husband was doing.
“Oh! Ted died last week. He went out to the garden to dig up a cabbage for dinner, had a heart attack and dropped down dead right there in the middle of the vegetable patch!”
“Oh dear! I’m very sorry,” replied her friend, “What did you do?”
“Opened a can of peas instead.”

Thanks to Noreen for this one!
Funny story.
Here’s a funny true, but Unlikely Story. (Share, if you’d like.)
Mike that is one great story, I have had a busy few days so a couple of days behind on reading your blog.
Good one, GM!
Brighid, you never know when a can of peas will come in handy!
An old woman was arrested for shoplifting at a grocery store. When she appeared before the judge, the judge asked what she had taken. The lady replied, “A can of peaches.” The judge then asked why she had done it. She replied, “I was hungry and forgot to bring any cash to the store.” The judge asked how many peaches were in the can. She replied, “Nine.” The judge said, “Well then, I’m going to give you nine days in jail–one day for each peach.” As the judge was about to drop his gavel, the lady’s husband raised his hand and asked if he might speak. The judge said, “Yes, what do you have to add?” The husband said, “Your honor, she also stole a can of peas.”
Nasty husband. I bet he eat them!
Wow! Some people collapse when losing a spouse. For others, “life goes on.” 😀
Alas, whether we collapse, cry or laugh, life goes on!
Ha! Thanks for the chuckle. I shall be relaying this one on, I think 🙂
Share away, Kate, I would not have these stories with out the friends who share them with me.
Which proves cabbages are bad for you.
😆 Dianne, I love it!
Another cackler – thank you to whoever passed it on to you!
