A Nun and a warm glass of milk
« on: January 19, 2016, 05:10:32 am »

In a convent in Ireland, the 99-year-old Mother Superior lay quietly.  She was dying. The Nuns had gathered around her bed, laying garlands around her and trying to make her last journey comfortable.






 







They wanted to give her warm milk to drink but she declined. One of the nuns took  the glass back to the kitchen.






 Then, remembering a bottle of Irish Whiskey that had been received as a gift the previous Christmas, she opened it and poured a generous amount into the warm milk.
 
 Back at Mother Superior's bed, they lifted her head gently and held the glass to her lips. The very frail Nun drank a little, then a little more and before they knew it, she had finished the whole glass down to the last drop.






As her eyes brightened, the nuns thought it would be a good opportunity to have one last talk with their spiritual leader..






 "Mother," the nuns asked earnestly, "Please give us some of your wisdom before you leave us"
 She raised herself up very slowly in the bed on one elbow, looked at them and said:“





Whatever you do,  DON'T  SELL THAT COW."

Ok that brought a smile to my face - it was cute.  I don't find too many things funny enough to smile or laugh about but this was really cute.
