the Bread of Life: free bread at Ragu's

the Bread of Life: free bread at Ragu's by ric gustafson


The young waiter, sporting a dark beard and a white apron, walked up to the table. " Good evening,welcome to Ragu's". He handed the couple menus.
" Thank you" replied Henry Carlson. " We heard that your Italian cuisine and your bread are world famous".
" Thank you". He poured water into their glasses.
Louise Carlson smiled. " We also heard that Wednesday is free bread night".
" That's true". He smiled. " A lot of people come just for that". He looked at them. " Do you need a few more minutes to look over the menu?".
" No, we usually order the same thing". He handed the young waiter the menus. " I will have the spaghetti and meatballs". He smiled at Louise. " My wife will have the ravioli". He smiled at the waiter. " And of course plenty of your bread".
He came back with the bread. " Your meals should be out shortly".
Twenty minutes later, their meals came.
" Oh young man, can we have some more bread?".
" Of course, I am the Bread of Life".
Later, the waiter brought their bill. " Is there anything else I can do for you?".
" Yes, can we have an order of bread to go?".
" Sure". Jesus smiled. " He who comes to me will never go hungry". He took their credit card.
He brought back their card and a box with bread in it. " Thank you for coming to Ragu's".
Henry signed the bill. " Thank you for a fine meal and the great bread".
The couple left.
Jesus smiled as another couple walked in.
" Good evening, welcome to Ragu's".
