91. The Huge Cabbage #Inspirational Moral Stories
Candice and Jeanie were walking home from school. As they
talked and laughed, they came upon a huge cabbage field. "Look, those
cabbages are huge," said Jeanie. Candice was in the mood for some fun. So
she said, "Oh, that's nothing. I once saw a cabbage bigger than this. It
was very big," she said, and she stretched out her hands as wide apart as
they would get. Jeanie understood that Candice was pulling her leg. So she
decided to play along and said, "It was certainly huge. How much water did
it need?" Candice said, "Truckloads!" Jeanie said, "Do you
remember I once bought a pot that was bigger than my house?" Candice said,
"Who ever heard of a pot bigger than a house? What did you buy that for."
"Why, to cook that huge cabbage you just told me about!" Jeanie
replied. Candice and Jeanie had a hearty laugh.
