A young
woman was preparing a ham dinner. After
she cut off the end of the ham, she
placed it in a pan for baking. Her
friend asked her,"Why did you cut off
the end of the ham"? And she replied ,"I
really don't know but my mother always
did, so I thought you were supposed to."
Later when talking to her mother she
asked her why she cut off the end of the
ham before baking it, and her mother
replied,"I really don't know, but that's
the way my mom always did it."
A few weeks later while visiting her
grandmother, the young woman asked,
"Grandma, why is it that you cut off the
end of a ham before you bake it?"
Her grandmother replied ,"Well dear, it
would never fit into my baking pan."
