Loaves and Fishes, Fishes and...Burgers?

I was putting Blane down for his nap today and I asked him what he learned in Bible Class. He said, "Ummmm....two fishes."

"Oh," I said,"what went with the fishes?" I was thinking of Jesus' feeding of the 5000 with 5 loaves and 2 fish.

"A basket of hamburgers."

Okay. I thought I would try a different tack--maybe that would jump-start the ol' memory chip.

"So did Jesus do something with the fishes and hamburgers?"

"Yes," he replied. "He threw them in a big hole."

I was not remotely recalling this story. "So then what happened?"

"Then it went down the drain, and through the pipes, and out into the shower!"

Never mind. Elvis has left the building.
