Hello Everyone!
Well, Lent is upon us! That means Fish Time! We have great Fresh Fish Specials all through Lent! We are
pretty-well known for those specials for both the great prices as well as the Quality Seafood! This week, we are starting out with Fresh Yellow Lake Perch! None of that imitation stuff...just the old fashion Lake Erie Lake Perch! Not farm-raised, never frozen...almost like all you fishermen out there...minus the gassing the boat up and baiting the hooks and cleaning the fish! :) Along with the Perch, we have Lake Michigan Smoked Chubs and Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon and Original-flavored Smoked Salmon pieces and sides. Speaking of sides, we have our Creamy Cole Slaw on sale too! If you're not in the seafood mood, we also have Great "Meat" items including Fresh, Extra Lean Ground Chuck (our #1 sale item), T-bones and Porterhouses, and our Jacobs own Braunschweiger!
John Smith was the only Protestant to move into a large Catholic neighborhood. On the first Friday of Lent, John was outside grilling a big juicy steak on his grill. Meanwhile, all of his neighbors were eating cold tuna fish for supper. This went on each Friday of Lent. On the last Friday of Lent, the neighborhood men got together and decided that something had to be done about John; he was tempting them to eat meat each Friday of Lent, and they couldn't take it anymore.
They decided to try and convert John to be a Catholic. They went over and talked to him and were so happy that he decided to join all of his neighbors and become a Catholic. They took him to church, and the priest sprinkled some water over him, and said, "You were born a Baptist, you were raised a Baptist, and now you are a Catholic."
The men were so relieved, now their biggest Lenten temptation was resolved.
The next year's Lenten season rolled around. The first Friday of Lent came, and just at supper time, when the neighbor were sitting down to their tuna fish dinner, there came the wafting smell of steak cooking on a grill.
The neighborhood men could not believe their noses! What was going on? They called each other up and decided to meet over in John's yard to see if he had forgotten it was the first Friday of Lent.
The group arrived just in time to see John standing over his grill with a small pitcher of water. He was sprinkling some water over his steak on the grill, saying, "You were born a cow, you were raised a cow, and now you are a fish."
One of my favorite Lenten Jokes! :)
