Oh, Crumbs
I'm thinking of making a cake.
Oh, yes?
And I have ingredients, I do!
Sounds good.
They'll love my cake, oh yes, they will.
I'm sure they will, but . . .
I have a special recipe, see?
Sounds good, but . . .
Once they've eaten that cake, you see -
Hmm?
- they'll be happy, oh so happy!
You mean . . .?
Oh yes, oh yes. I've grown that stuff.
That stuff?
It's green, you see, it's green and dry.
OK, OK, I'll give it a try.
You'll enjoy. You'll enjoy. Oh, you will enjoy.
I'll feel a great euphoria? No doubt.
But you haven't tried it yet.
Hmm.
