Paul and Natalie have invited their elderly rabbi for dinner. While they’re in the kitchen, preparing the meal, the rabbi is in the dining room with their five-year-old daughter.
“So tell me, Emma,” asks the rabbi, “do you know what we are having tonight?”
“Goat,” replies Emma.
“Goat?” says the startled rabbi. “Are you sure about that, Emma?”
“Oh yes, Rabbi,” replies Emma. “I heard Daddy say to Mummy, ‘Today is just as good as any to have the old goat for dinner.’”
