Subject: The upcoming ward banquet
As many of you know, budget cuts have forced us to scale back on ward activities. But hopefully, with the help of your donations, we can still enjoy another sumptuous ward banquet. Below is a list of the ingredients we need based on the expected turn out of 200 people.
- Raspberry jell-O -- 100 packets
- Fruit cocktail -- 75 cans
- Cool Whip -- 50 tubs
- Potato flakes -- 200 pounds
- Cream of mushroom soup -- 300 cans
- Tater tots -- 250 pounds
- Green beans -- 100 cans
- Ground beef -- 1 pound
- Dehydrated onions -- 10 pounds
- Velveeta cheese -- 200 pounds
- Rolls -- 600
- Rice Krispies -- 25 boxes
- Marshmallow creme -- 75 jars
- Butter -- 400 pounds
- Salt -- as much as possible
- Hawaiian Punch -- 300 gallons
If you would like to stop receiving these emails, we'll assume you have a very poor appetite and will send over a pound of potato flakes.

Do the words "fresh produce" mean anything to the Mormon banquet organizers?
ReplyDelete"With any luck, somebody will be there to whip them into the super-yummy meal we're all looking forward to."
Translation: Womenfolk, you are hereby ordered to do all the work.
Ahab, problem is fresh produce doesn't keep long enough to be in the a 2 year supply Mormons need in to sustain them through the impending Armageddon. (Which will probably occur any moment now that gay marriage is gaining acceptance.)
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, if the women don't show to cook the meal there will be quite a bit of 'splaining to do!
One pound of ground beef and 200 pounds of butter! LOLOLOLOL!
ReplyDeleteI mean, ::shudder:::
The memories ...
CD, Ah yes, memories. And now I'm going to log off for a while and cook Mark's dinner ...
ReplyDeleteWow this ward actually follows the word of wisdom when it comes to eating meat sparingly!
ReplyDelete@Ali, hahaha, yes, the word of wisdom is all about healthy living. And the saints in Abbottsville follow it to a "t."
