Possessed by indigestion?

That’s the spirit.

When Benjamin Franklin was a boy and they were bringing is a wagon load of supplies for the winter, he asked if they could just say a blessing over all of it right then and be done with it.

Are you going to “baptize” it with Pepto-whatever, (that pink chalky stuff).

“Rub a dub dub, thanks for the grub….”

Or as Hwkeye said, “Praise the Lord and pass the sauce.”

Pa Kettle: “Much obliged!” (Said with a tip of his always-present bowler hat.) Don’t remember where I picked up this one; “Past the teeth and over the tongue, look out stomach, here it comes!”

Through the teeth and over the GUMS…..

From the movie Sargent York ….”Bless these victuals we done got”

Or divine intervention at any rate

Always reminds me of THE restaurant in the last town I lived in. When there’s no alternative within 20 miles…

A pastor friend and I went to a fast food place, we asked for forgiveness

Exorcism … Brings a whole new meaning to Green Eggs and Ham.

Deviled ham. Deviled eggs. Devil’s food cake.

Bow your heads …

Oh ! Thank you Lord for this food I am about to eat. All the things you provide for us can not be beat. Amen

Yet he is back there to eat daily…

I had meals where I was the one that needed the Blessing.

Bless this mess.

Pass the salt and ketchup! “Purify food 1/2” The D & D players will get it!
