(It might be good to let the uninformed in on your “little joke”)

Actually, it’s not my little joke. It’s a Lutheran joke, in fact. I’m surprised you don’t know about it. I learned, upon marriage to a Lutheran, that no group of people can prepare jello in a more creative way than a Lutheran wife. It is a fixture on any pot luck line, as you probably know.

They wrote a book about it:

If you need more proof, just Google “Jello and Lutherans” You’ll get about 30,000 results.

Happy New Year
