The family secret for perfect pies

[skybob]

Granny Rose made such beautiful pies! One day, I asked her, "How do you get such beautiful pies with the crimps around the edge so even?"

"Well, it's a family secret," she said. "But if you promise not to tell, I'll let you in on it."

"Okay," I said. "Tell me!"

"Well, first, I roll out the dough, making sure it is flat and even. Then I cut out the bottom layer and carefully put in the pie plate and make sure it is firmly against the sides of the plate. Then I slowly pour in the filling, making sure it's not too full. Next, I cut out the top layer and carefully put it over the filling.

Finally, I take out my teeth and just run them around the edge of the pie crust and they make the nicest even impressions you ever did see!"

Funny!!

Along the same lines:

A preacher goes to visit with a dear old lady in his congregation. She's a dear thing, but she doesn't have a tooth in her head. As the are chatting, the preacher notices that she has a small bowl of peanuts sitting out on the coffee table. He samples a few and they're delicious! There's something different about them but he can't quite put his finger on it. Before he knows it he has finished the whole bowl.

Each time he visits she has a new bowl sitting out for him. He can't for the life of him figure out why they taste so different, but they're so good he always finishes the bowl.

Finally one day, he gets up the nerve to thank her for always having a fresh bowl out for him and asks her what she does to make them taste so good. She replies: "You don't have to thank me, preacher. You always save me from throwing them out. I can't chew them after I suck the chocolate off!!!!"
