Daily Tot 4/18/22

Hey there, sorry for not posting on Thursday! Thankfully, Noodly Girl covered it. Are we finally going to learn about the grocery store, or will we have to wait even longer?

My Idiosyncratic Area

Part 3: The Grocery Store

Again, I apologize, for the mishaps yesterday

But I'm back and ready for the shop's explaining

I walk into the grocery store

Tell a camel what I’d like

A pig flies out and brings a bell

Ringing up more or less a different thing

For example, I asked for a bottle of milk

But was given instead a can of cream

Both dairy, indeed

But not the thing that I need

Why don't I say the opposite,

You may be asking now

But the camel can't be tricked

I tried it once, I asked for some rice.

And was given it instead of the flour I desired.

I've now learnt to make do with what I get

And every time I try to predict

I'm wrong every guess

Wow, the grocery store truly is fascinating, to say the least. The next post in this series will be next Monday, but I'll be writing tomorrow's Tot. See you!
