Why a ship called the sauce?
This question has been raised at the dinner this evening that the gravy was circulated. I wondered if someone knew why it was called that!
He holds the sauce, yes, we all know. But how is it similar to a boat? Because the cargo boat transfers and everything else, from one place to another. Now, with sauce, you can use a boat or bowl. He will move to Persons wishing sauce. In their excitement they can or can not do this in a quick manner. If this is true, the sauce is bound to spill or fall on the sides. The gravy boat, however, held in. That's all. It transports goods (juice) to a new location. Amen.
