One day, Nasreddin Hodja walks over to Akşehir Lake with copper bucket in his hands and starts pouring spoonfuls of yoghurt into the lake. Seeing Hodja near the lake with a copper bucket full of yoghurt, the curious villgaers ask:
-"What's up, Hodja? What on earth you up to?"
-"I'm turning the lake into yoghurt" replies Hodja.
-"Reverend Hodja, could a lake ever be fermented?" the villagers retort.
-"I do know it wouldn't, but what if it does?" is the reply from Hodja.
