Abe and Sarah lying in separate beds. Freezing weather.
Sarah says, “ Abe, oy it’s so cold I’m freezing.” So Abe gets up and gets an extra blanket from the cupboard.
“ Are you a bit warmer, feigele ? “ he asks.
“ Oy “ she replies. “ I’m still a bit cold.” So he gets up once more and gets a thick woollen jersey and puts it on her.
“ Now are you warm ?” he says.
Sarah replies, “ You know, Abe. When I was a little girl in bed in winter, my mother would come lie next to me and snuggle up to keep me warm. Oy, a meichel.”
Abe looks at her and says, “ For God’s sake, Sarah, it’s one o’clock in the morning. I’m NOT going to fetch your mother!!”
