A Royal “NO”

 



Another bit of Flash fiction. And I’m gonna keep doing these unless someone tells me to stop…

 

Words:

attic

wicked

whisper

athlete

reject

queen

great

lecture

~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~

The handsome athlete whispered to the Queen:

“Let’s go into the attic and do wicked things!”

 

She firmly rejected him and gave him a great lecture on his impropriety.

 

Then cut off his head.

 

The end.

Packing a Business Woman’s Lunch 1889

 



Portable Lunches

 

What can be puzzling and important is how to make lunch interesting for women who are breadwinners. The same thing every day can make the palate tired and bored. And while they might not feel like taking the precious extra time out of their tired day to do something about it, it is important to one’s health. Good, enjoyable food is health. If one is well nourished, one has more vigor in life. The trouble would be worth it.

 

The answer is: Chocolate sandwich. Cut thin slices of bread and butter as for other sandwiches, have a cake of sweetened chocolate in a warm spot overnight, or long enough to become soft like cheese. Scrape it and spread thickly over the bread and butter, then make into sandwiches.

 

This sandwich, when the appetite is jaded and craves variety, will be agreeable to chocolate lovers. A cake of chocolate between two crackers is another form of it.

~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~

 

In other words, Nutella.

Bread, butter and Nutella.

Because we all know that Woman equals Chocolate.

Not exactly a balanced diet, but it would sure taste good. If you add some carrot and celery sticks and maybe some cheese on the side, that wouldn’t be bad at all. Another good sandwich would be peanut butter and Nutella. Or Nutella and sliced bananas. Just make sure you get some real protein in your dinner that night. And maybe take a brisk walk afterward. All those chocolate calories, ya know…

Return of Muffin Man!!!

 



Muffin Man stopped by again and left these gems of info. It’s your call whether they are true or not…

 

Favorite season

In the central valley, there is only about two or three weeks of spring and autumn which then either introduces or finishes off summer. I absolutely hate summer. What is there to like about 115 degree weather, sweat, B.O, and broken air conditioning units? Winter is my favorite season. We don’t get snow in Fresno but we do get very heavy fog which I love. Oftentimes, fog means delayed school buses and early morning classes of free time. Personally, I believe that winter is most enjoyable.

 

What is your current obsession?

Lately, I’ve been doodling and watching Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure (Japanese manga series) to pass the time.

 

What was the last “fun” thing you bought?

Recently, a woman manning a booth at the Fresno Fair offered a necklace made out of teeth in exchange for some of my hair and the stolen wristwatch of a passerby. Well, I must say that my molar necklace looks divine with my new boots. I’ve been wearing it everywhere.

 

Truly random facts/things about you.

I eat potato chips with a fork because I don’t like the grease on my fingertips and I have a prosthetic arm. (It’s not my prosthetic as I am not an amputee but I do have a fake arm, just in case)

 

5 favorite colors

If you’re asking for my five favorite colors that are found in the basic 8 crayon box, then they are:

Urine Sample Yellow

Sinus Infection Green

Small Potatoes (tan)

Blue Like The Color Of My Debit Card

Dark White (grey)

Light black (also grey).

And I am very aware that there are six colors listed but I’m a bad boy. Get Rekt. 

 

Foods I will never eat

I would say human flesh but I try everything at least once.

 

If I was stranded on a desert island and could only eat one food, it would be:

I would eat the sand. I’m not a coward.

 

Totally unrealistic thing you’d like to do that will NEVER happen?

Swallow knives so that I could spit them out at people like a llama.
