Grandpa came to America to live with his family. He didn’t speak any English. Each day when the family members were at work Grandpa would spend his time in the park, walking, enjoying the fresh air, and feeding the ducks a few crumbs he brought along.
So that he would be able to get a little something to eat, when he wanted it, his daughter taught him to say, "Apple pie and coffee."
Each day he would go into the nearby diner, climb on a stool at the counter and say to the waitress, "Apple pie and coffee."

This worked well for him for awhile until he just couldn't take another piece of apple pie. He asked his daughter to teach him to say, "Ham sandwich and a coke." He went to the park the next day, practicing his new words.
When he got hungry, he went to the diner climbed onto the stool at the counter and waited his turn. When the waitress asked for his order he proudly said, "Ham sandwich and a coke." To which the waitress asked, "White or rye?"

Grandpa hesitated and replied, "Apple pie and coffee!"
