Russian Stories

Here are some Russian Stories that I found in a book which I really enjoyed.

Once there was a turnip. And it said "I taste very good with honey."
"You plagarist!" the honey replied, "I taste good without you!".

Once there were three Russian merchants walking down a road.
"Wasn't that food we had at the last inn good?" One of them asked.
"Yes, but I think that it cost a bit too much." The second replied.
The third, who had been silent up to this point, now chimed in "But I feel I got my money's worth. Didn't you see? As soon as our host turned his back, I took a handful of salt out of the salt cellar and crammed it into my mouth."
