Funny Pastoral Visit to the Nursing Home
Pastor Bob drives up to the Happy Rest Nursing home to visit Matilda, an elderly member of his church in the latter years of her life.
"Hi Matilda, good to see you, can I sit with you for awhile?"
As they begin chatting, the pastor notices a bowl full of peanuts on the nearby nightstand. As Matilda continues to share a story he's already heard a few times before, he reaches for the bowl of peanuts and takes one.
As the conversation continues, he also continues to eat more and more peanuts. Near the end of their time together he realizes he has eaten every single peanut in the bowl.
"Matilda, I must apologize. It seems that I have eaten every one of your peanuts."
"Oh that's okay Pastor Bob."
"They would have just sat there anyway."
"Without my teeth anymore, all I can do is lick and suck the chocolate off of them and put the peanuts back in the bowl."
