My brother, a strict vegetarian, travels abroad for long periods on business. When he got back from Europe one time, he called our parents' home and told Dad he was about to pay them an unexpected visit.

Dad hung up. "The prodigal son is returning!" he called to my mother. "Kill the fatted zucchini!"

Note: For those that don't know, this refers to the prodigal son parable in the King James bible (Luke 15:23). When the son came home they "killed the fatted calf." This was the tradition in those days. It was part of preparing a really nice dinner for an honored guest.
