Riddle: You go to the grocery store with the intention of cooking everything you purchase for a night at home. You don't have the recipe, and you don't want to spend more than you have to. You start in the vegetable aisle and buy some onions, shallots, and garlic. You grab some red and green bell peppers, asparagus, celery, and zucchini. You walk over to the fruit section and purchase a bundle of bananas, grapes, blackberries, raspberries, and strawberries. You then go to the dairy section to get half & half, gouda cheese, eggs, and sour cream. Before you leave you also grab flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder, and marshmallows. At the checkout counter you get a chocolate bar and a stick of gum. You drive home, walk into the kitchen, and pull out your recipe. It reads: 2 cloves garlic 1 shallot 3 grapes 1 marshmallow 1 cup sugar 1 bundle of bananas 2 tsp baking soda 5 raspberries 5 asparagus 1 tsp cocoa powder 2 tsp baking powder 2 slices of gouda cheese 2 eggs 5 strawberries 1 chocolate bar 1 cup sour cream 1 cup flour 1 whole zucchini, julienned 10 blackberries 1 stick of gum 2 red bell peppers 1 green bell pepper You get everything out, and start to follow the instructions in the recipe.

Riddle: A man and his wife were doing missionary work near the city of Nairobi in the country of Kenya in eastern Africa. Their housing had not yet been completed, so the man, the woman, and their six year old daughter were spending a few nights in the jungle in three small pup tents. During their third night there, the woman was awakened by the call of a hyena passing by, so she got out of her tent to see if her young daughter had been frightened by the noise. As she peered into her daughter's tent she was surprised to see the dark figures of lion, a panther, and a cheetah which were curled up next to her daughter. Seeing her daughter was asleep and unharmed, the woman slowly and quietly withdrew from the tent, and simply returned to her own tent and went back to bed. How could this child's mother leave her daughter in such a dangerous situation, and simply ignore what she had just witnessed without intervening in some way? How can such emotional coldness ever be explained; or is there something here we are missing?
Answer: The woman was surprised to see that her daughter had talked her father into allowing her to bring her three favorite stuffed animals on the trip with her (the lion, the panther, and the cheetah).
