You will never look at a cup of coffee the same way again. …..
A young woman went to her mother and told
her about her life and how things were so hard for
her. She did not know how she was going to make it
and wanted to give up, She was tired of fighting
and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved,
a new one arose.
Her mother took her to the kitchen. She
filled three pots with water and placed each on a
high fire. Soon the pots came to boil. In the first
she placed carrots, in the second she placed eggs,
and in the last she placed ground coffee beans. She
let them sit and boil; without saying a word.

Pass The Butter, Please .
………..
This is interesting . .

Margarine was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys. When it killed the turkeys, the people who had put all the money into the research wanted a payback so they put their heads together to figure out what to do with this product to get their money back. It was a white substance with no food appeal so they added the yellow coloring and sold it to people to use in place of butter. How do you like it? They have come out with some clever new flavorings.
