Sauerkraut


A man was having an affair. The woman involved suddenly announced that
she had become pregnant. Not wanting his wife to find out, he gave her
a large amount of money and asked her to go out of the country, to
Germany to stay with friends, to wait out the pregnancy and have the
baby.

"But how will you know when our baby is born?" she asked.

"Well", he said, "After you've had the baby, just send me a postcard
and write 'sauerkraut' on the back".

Not knowing what else to do, she took the money and went off to
Germany.

Six months went by and then one day the man's wife called him at his
office. "Dear, you received a very strange postcard in the mail
today", she explained. "I don't understand what it means!"

"Just wait till I get home and I'll read it," he replied.

Later that evening, the man read his postcard which said:
"SAUERKRAUT, SAUERKRAUT, SAUERKRAUT, TWO WITH WIENERS, ONE WITHOUT!"
