A dash of balsamic vinegar is good for lifting the fond off the bottom of a pan after cooking something in a little oil, adding a rich undertone to your dish.

At the funeral of a wealthy man, Mulla was crying bitterly.
"He must have been a relative." Someone said.
"No." Mulla replied. "And that is the reason I can't stop crying."
A man went to a Sufi sheykh and said:
"I am tired of being an ascetic, and worldliness leaves me cold. What shall I do?"
The Sufi replied: "Knock on your head with a rock."
One of the neighbors found Nasreddin scattering crumbs all around his house.
"Why are you doing that?" he asked.
"I'm keeping the tigers away," replied Nasreddin.
"But there aren't any tigers around here," said the neighbor.
"That's right," said Nasreddin. "You see how well it works?"

In the house of a stingy host, Mulla was clearing up a tray of cooked lima beans.
"Overeating can be fatal." The host observed.
Mulla paused a little; then, as he resumed eating, he said:
"If I die, be kind to my wife."

One day Nasreddin Hodja had to send his son to the fountain to fill up their big, earthenware water pitcher. After handing the pitcher to his son, he slapped him on the face.
`Don't break the pitcher!' he said. People around who witnessed this, showed their disapproval.
`Hodja effendi, the kid didn't break the pitcher,' they said, `he didn't even leave for the fountain yet. Why did you slap him?'
`Ah, but, you see,' the Hodja replied, `if I slap him after he breaks the pitcher, it will be too late!'

A man went to see a rich Emir. The Emir received the stranger coldly.
"Do you know me?" The man asked.
"No." The Emir replied.
"My father desired to wed your mother, and if the wedding had taken place we would now be brothers."
The Emir pondered over this for awhile, and then ordered his scribes to enter the stranger's name among his heirs.

Every time I do this, I forget that it is way better just to swallow the damn pill.

Everybody always jumps to this conclusion with me!
