stocking the larder

“What’s a larder?” Calliope popped a perfectly popped kernel into her mouth.
Urania looked up the new-to-them word. “A large cupboard for storing food.”
Thalia nom-nom-nommed like the Cookie Monster. Crumbs and chocolate mingled with popcorn on the floor. “I’m grateful the pantry has room for all of us!”
“Ugh!” Urania smacked herself in the forehead. “Drawist missed an I in nutritious!”
“She’s fallible,” said Tal, “and therefore, accessible.”
Words from Typist:
Not sure who said, “True wisdom sees both sides.”
The trio often sees three or more… because Typist makes 4.
Do you hear your muses?
The clash of ideas is the sound of freedom.

Reader didn’t notice the missed “i”. Funny? Curious? New glasses? Missing the details? Wanted popcorn?😆
I hear Thalia all the way out in Las Vegas!
“Thalia nom-nom-nommed like the Cookie Monster.” I see the cookie 🍪 crunching, crumbling, and falling to the floor of the “larder.”
I feel her gratitude and zest for the experience we call life!
#Grateful
Yes, I hear the muses… yours, and mine!
