How to enjoy a good meal

Here are some creative ways to enjoy a meal:

If you pray before meals, close your eyes REALLY tight. This will be very exciting because you may have just discovered that you can keep your eyes closed for more than four seconds. While you have your eyes closed, wave your head around in a Stevie Wonder fashion.   This will help you keep your eyes closed even longer than four seconds and will be very funny, so don't forget to  laugh out loud in the middle of prayer. When the prayer is over, beg for dressing-salad. When your mother tells you "we don't have any dressing-salad," your mother will probably give you a sweet potato. When you get your sweet potato, put as much as you can in your mouth, while simultaneously singing "Ba Ba Ba" at your house guest.  This will give everyone a delightful sweet potato shower. After the sweet potato is gone, or at least dispersed, have fun with your asparagus, which MUST be eaten with a fork. To do this, pick the asparagus up and dangle it in the air. Swing it around a few times, then grab your fork, and stab at it.  You might need your other hand to hold it still so you can get the fork in.  Once you have gotten your asparagus on the fork, then you can eat it bite by bite, singing the alphabet song in between each bite. When you are done with the Asparagus, exclaim loudly that you like the asparagus at least three times. Then your mother may give you quiona, if she is that type of mother.  The best thing to do with quiona is stab it with your spoon, then put some in your mouth.  But don't forget that your house guest is still there, and he is very funny, so you have to sing "ba ba ba" again, and give everyone at the table a shower of quiona.  When you are finally done with your meal, make sure you burp at least four times in a row.  Then take your hands and bang them on the table and laugh.  This will ensure that anyone under the age of 5 in t he house will do the same, and there will be an abundance of banging and laughter.

All these are really fun, but I want to warn you, if you try to do this you might get really tired and start to cry. You will have so much fun that someone may have to carry you to your bed.
