A funny thing happened on the way to the restaurant.....

[Guest guest]

Actually that was just a play of words on a " PLAY " called " A Funny

Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum "

After reading Mike's restaurant funnies, I thought I'd start this

thread...

For those who don't know, I am a singer and recording artist (part

time anyway), and I do concerts, and I travel and sing at churches for

Homecomings and other events as well. Anyway last week I sang for a

Homecoming service and afterwards they had a meal...........BOY did

they have a meal; and after not being able to stay afterwards the week

before when I sang at another Homecoming, I told my husband we would

stay to eat. Well, they had something for everyone and MORE than

enough, so I just got a spoon of this and that so I could sample a

little of what I had selected. When I sat down people started

commenting about how little I had on my plate. I thought, how am I

going to explain this. One comment came that after doing all that

singing I should have worked up a better appetite than that......LOL I

did, I just can't eat that much. I finally broke down and told them I

had an egg sized stomach, they all said BUMMER with all this food. It

was a bummer in a way, but I knew I had made the right choice. I ate

mostly soft foods and I got a piece of ham and it was great. I had

just a little room left so I decided to splurge a bit so I got one

very small spoonful of sweet potato caserole........that was always my

favorite and I'd rather have that than any chocolate cake anyday, so I

took one itsy bitsy bit thinking I might die or

something......everyone was watching me eat by then. I took one more

bite and said that satisfied my craving and I stopped. I didn't dumb

over that which was a miracle. I did really well with all that food

before me....proud of me.

Soooooooo, what was everyone elses funny restaurant story??????
