Good Morning My FRiends,
Hope you enjoy the message from the thoughts and writings of these great
books.
Two Nickels and Five Pennies
In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less, a
10-year old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and sat at a
table. A waitress put a glass of water in front of him. "How
much is an ice cream sundae?"
"Fifty cents," replied the waitress.
The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and
studied a number of coins in it. "How much is a dish of
plain ice cream?" he inquired.
Some people were now waiting for a table and the
waitress was a bit impatient. "Thirty-five cents," she said
brusquely.
The little boy again counted the coins. "I'll have the
plain ice cream," he said.
The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on the
table, and walked away. The boy finished the ice cream, paid
the cashier and departed. When the waitress came back, she
began wiping down the table and then swallowed hard at what
she saw. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish, were
two nickels and five pennies - her tip.
God Bless
