Kids Say the Darnest Things!

The Little Coffee Maker and Folgers

A sweet little boy surprised his mother one morning and brought her a cup of coffee in bed. He had made it all by himself and was so proud. He waited eagerly to hear her verdict on the quality of the coffee.

The mother had truly never in her life had such a bad cup of coffee. The first few sips just about did her in, but she thanked her son, told him it was wonderful, and drank it all anyway. As she forced down the last sip, she noticed three little green army guys in the bottom of the cup.

She asked, "Honey, why would three of your little army guys be in the bottom of my cup?"

Her son replied, "You know, mom, it's like on TV:

"The best part of waking up... is soldiers in your cup."

  After having grown up with all those [glow=red,2,300]OLD[/glow] commercials, I read that joke and laughed myself silly!!  It made me remember the Art Linkletter show with the same title. Oh- the "Good Ole Days"   Thanks for the memories!

This reminded me... when I was young I used to make my mother breakfast in bed on occasions such as Mothers Day or her Birthday, or sometimes just for no reason. I used to fry eggs for her and do some sausage or bacon (  :P  )  and make coffee and toast.
She told me years later that it used to be really horrible.. cold and greasy.. but she never ever let it show. She used to wake up and eat the lot with a big smile on her face, telling me how much she appreciated it and how delicious it was :) What a sweetie she is.
She also told me recently that my Dad used to make toast with marmelade for her and bring it up to her in bed with her coffee. She hated marmelade but she didn't want to hurt his feelings so she never said. She just ate it and thanked him. Some years later she was visiting someone with him and the host asked if she wanted marmelade on her toast. Without thinking she said "oh no.. I don't like marmelade" and my Dad was like  :o and then he was like --> :)

Sorry that this thread has digressed, but going down memory lane can sometimes be a one way street ...  ::)

eleanor bacon is HARAM to say in easy words...don't mae it for your mother anymore...you probably stopped, and celebrating birthdays and that stuff is HARAM too. why? because the prophet didn't celebrate them...nor did he eat pig...as in surat al maidah it...huree met alaikum al maisur wal khamr wa lahm AL KHINZEER...meaning: it is forbidden on you the alchohol, beer or wine, and the meat of the pig...i'll send you the full ayah...here it is....give me your email...

Eleanor- your tongue smiley added such a sarcastic twist to your post- I think it went right over her head!

Sometimes I think people forget that we are reverts- with a past- [i](opps- better not use that word or Mujaahid will be posting again!)[/i]

-a non Muslim background.

To explain the joke, Barraa- the young child always thought his mom said she wanted 'soldiers' in her cup when she really said- 'Folgers' ( a brand name of coffee)

My son's Karate class always ends with a cheer- "taung sew doe" (Tang Soo Do)

My sister once mentioned how cute it was that they say "Time to Go"
...but she is in her forties!

[quote]yeah sisters this is a nice joke but if the end were more FUNNY? [/quote]

This made me laugh- I must have e-mailed Jaihoon so many times asking him about a thought or joke post of his that I didn't get. Isn't there another Sister on this board who is always lost?

;-)Today Ali was testing for his Red belt in karate.

After his last test, his Instructor asked Ali how Ali thought he did.
???Ali answered in the typical 7 year old way- "I dunno."

:-[I told him that a better answer was 'You know best, sir.'


:-XThis morning, months later, I was quizing him on the info he needed and asked him what he was going to say when asked how he did.

Ali said "Mom I know you said to say 'You know best, sir.' but I think the better answer is "Allah knows best"

:-)I was so proud of him!

[center]:-)What do we saywhen we finish eating?[/center]
[center];-) ;-) ;-) Al- Humdullilllah[/center]

[center] :-)What do we say when we sneeze?[/center]
[center];-)  :-[Achoo?.....[/center]
