i love that she ‘knows’ the lollipops. and, she’s pro-nutrition at the same time. oh, the wonders of our youth — what have we lost? also reminds me of the tom robbins novel, ‘skinny legs and all,’ with sentient inaminate objects.
“Sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before BREAKFAST.”
—Lewis Carroll (1832 – 1898), Alice in Wonderland
“Life… is like a grapefruit. It’s orange and squishy, and has a few pips in it, and some folks have half a one for BREAKFAST.”
—Douglas Adams (1952 – 2001)
sad, i didn’t know that douglas had died. rare gem. 42.
