Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for May 16, 2018

Should we be concerned for Teresa? Lately, she seems to be searching for something… validation? recognition? I’m not sure, but I feel awkward mentioning it now.

I use it and other jams to flavor my morning oat meal.

Take THAT strawberry and cream Quaker Oats!

Of course it’s safe. It’s appeeling.

Good one to kipe at a pancake inn. Those small packets on the table.

I’ll skip the marmalade, I like to live dangerously.

It’s a trick. This is exactly how they lure you into keeping your head in a jar.

This has been a Sevillian Service Announcement. Pray that we are not overtaken by the minions of Marmite

Salt air, sandy planks,

Boundless sea and air emerge.

Universe at hand!

A bored walk.

When little bits of apple are colored Pepto-Bismol pink and foisted off as berries, then “contrived” is precisely the word that should come to mind.

(Mmmm! sodium caseinate, just like Momma used mass produce!)

There’s safety in walking Marmaduke too … btw, you folks are doing great, keep it up [insert old joke here] ….

It makes an excellent musilage.

Only if it’s shredless. No-one wants to be shredded by marmalade.

Marmalade goes by the board at my house.

and in lady marmalade…

“Safety in orange marmalade” my wrinkled old butt! There has never been safety in orange marmalade!

On the whole, I’d rather be on the boardwalk than in orange marmalade. Less stifling, I should think. Surely, safer?

Hence, I think Sister is here funning us with a delicious word salad of improvised or generated versicles. The congregation is directed to join in the chant.

Froglandian religious traditions are very complicated and betray a well-mixed heritage….
