A Nun And Some Warm Milk March 17, 2018
Posted by nrhatch in Humor, Joke.trackback
In a convent in Ireland, the 98-year-old Mother Superior lay dying.
The Nuns gathered around her bed trying to make her last journey comfortable.
They tried giving her warm milk to drink but she refused it.
One of the nuns took the glass back to the kitchen. Then, remembering a bottle of Irish Whiskey that had been received as a gift the previous Christmas, she opened it and poured a generous amount into the warm milk.
Back at Mother Superior’s bed, they held the glass to her lips.
The frail Nun drank a little, then a little more and before they knew it, she had finished the whole glass down to the last drop.
As her eyes brightened, the nuns thought it would be a good opportunity to have one last talk with their spiritual leader.
“Mother,” the nuns asked earnestly, “Please give us some of your wisdom before you leave us.”
She raised herself up in bed on one elbow, looked at them and said:
“DON’T SELL THAT COW.”
Aah . . . that’s better!

LOL! Good one 🙂
And so it came to pass, the cow was not sold.
And no one knew why, for it was but an ordinary cow.
And neither did the cow.
Have a great weekend,
Eric
Haha! Thanks, Eric.
So appropriate! Happy St. Pat’s Day!
This post coinciding with St. Paddy’s day => just happenstance and coincidence! No planning on my part.
I love it when stuff like that just happens. 😀
Another good one. Be sure to milk this joke for all it’s worth. Happy Saint Paddy’s Day!
Top of the morning to ye, Tippy!
LOLOL!! Good one. 🙂
Glad it was good for a grin and a giggle.
Yes I will have to pass that one on. 🙂
Wonderful! Happy St. Paddy’s Day!
Thanks, Ms. Ally! Have a grand day.
I’m very glad she had such a happy ending! 🙂
Well put!
LOL! Love this, Nancy. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Have a wonderful weekend, Jill ~> I see your avatar is “wearing o’ the green.”
Hilarious!!!! So true!
Yes, Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Glad you enjoyed “keep that cow!” 😀
I’m off to pour myself a glass of “milk.” ! 🙂
Haha! Enjoy every drop, Pam!
LOL 🍀😀🍀
Q. Why should you never iron a 4-leaf clover???
A. You don’t want to press your luck!
Can’t stop you Nancy! Hope your weekend was a barrel of laughs 😊
Not bad. Got to see 2 nieces, my sister, her husband, 2 cousins (and a cousin-in-law), and my only aunt.
Love this story, Nancy. Wise advice indeed. 😃
Glad you enjoyed, Sylvia! Thanks for sharing Iggy’s greenery today!
I never really cared for milk! But then again, I never tried this special brew. Might change my entire perspective. 🙂
I always liked milk better with Kahlua in it! 😀
Oh yes! 🙂
Or a Toasted Almond with Amaretto! 😀
I know it’s too late to wish you a Happy Saint Patrick’s Day; but today is the First Day of Spring. However, here in New York we’re being hit by a major Nor’easter. There’s heavy wind and snow. Here on Long Island, a 12 inch snowfall is predicted. It’s possible that some of my neighbors may go looking for that cow.
Happy First Day of Spring!
Hope that you survive Winter’s “last blast” . . .
Just remember, per the sages of yore ~> March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb.
A lamb?
Bah! Bah! Bah!
Hilarious! What a great teaching 🙂
Irish Whiskey + St. Paddy’s Day = Perfect Together!
