    National Apple Strudel Day

     

    A couple adopts a German baby, but he seems to have an issue. No matter how much love and attention they give him, he doesn’t speak. He is brought to an analyst for examination, but the analyst can’t find anything wrong. The baby simply doesn’t speak.

    Five years go by and the couple has learned to live with a mute child. One day, they prepare him his favorite meal with some Apple Strudel for dessert. He gets through the whole thing, but stops at dessert and sets down his fork.

    “This Apple Strudel is a bit tepid.”

    His parents are amazed that he was finally able to speak and his first words were even in a complete sentence. They ask him, “That was amazing, but you could have spoken much sooner. What took you so long to finally speak?”

    He replied, “Up until now, everything has been satisfactory.”
