A young couple got married, and when the wife prepared
to bake a ham to celebrate their first month together,
she carefully cut off each end before placing it in the
pan. Her husband asked her why she did that and she
replied, “I don’t know - it’s what my mother always
did. But I can ask her. “She called Mom, who responded,
“I always saw your Grandma do it, so I did the same.”
They decided to check further, so the young bride then
called Grandma, who explained, “It was the only way I
could get it to fit into my pan.”
