A little girl was baking a cake with her mother when she opened the oven door ten minutes before the cake was ready. Immediately the cake batter fell, and another famous “fell cake” was made. “Aw” exclaimed the mother, “you took the cake out too soon.” “What do you mean, Mommy?” asked the little girl who didn't realize what she had done. “When you take the cake out of the oven too soon, the batter falls, and the cake is ruined,” the mother replied informatively.
The girl sat down in a kitchen chair, put her finger on the side of her head, tapped her finger slightly, and pondered, and said, “Is that what happened to the ecomononoly?” The mother wrinkled her brow, looked inquisitively toward her daughter and said, “Do you mean the “economy”?” “Yes,” replied the little girl affirmatively and continued, “they said on the news that the ecomononoly has fallen” so I just figured they must have taken the cake out of the oven too soon. With a smile on her face and a tender chuckle the mother replied, “Why yes they did, honey. Yes they did.”
The mother took down a couple of plates from the cabinet, cut into the fell cake, poured some milk into a couple glasses, and said purposefully, “we shall just have “fell cake” today.” To which the little girl responded, “I wish everyone could have some of our fell cake,” and the mother quipped, “Oh, everybody is, honey, everybody is.”
Until tomorrow...Why Say More?
