I just remembered a gr8 story.
A young newly married couple invited a guest over for a shabbos meal. After the fish, the guest said “That was really tasty fish”. “Do you want any more” asked the husband? “Yes please” said the guest.
The wife was mortified cos she hadnt made any extras at all being very newly married. So she kicked her husband under the table. And luckily for her, the guest changed his mind and said that actually he didnt want more cos he wanted to leave room for the rest of the meal.
After the soup, again the guest remarked how good it was and the husband didnt get the hint – he offered more again to the guest. The wife quickly kicked her husband again under the table. The guest said that actually he wont be able to eat the main course if he has too much soup. Again the wife was relieved.
And would you believe it, after the chicken the husband offered the guest more! But he said he was full.
After the meal ended and the guest had left, the wife complained bitterly that she could have been humiliated badly had the guest wanted more food because she hadnt more to give.
“I didnt know that” said the husband.
“But why did you keep offering more?” said the wife. “Didnt you get the hint when I kept kicking you under the table?”
The husband said “What are you talking about? I didnt feel you kick me at all”…
