Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for June 15, 2024

Is this just for wage and celery workers?

Anyone who hides the celery (flakes or whole celery) is okay with me!

I don’t use enough to buy by the bunch. Half a bottle of flakes is about a quarter cup, about right for lots of things.

Celery Free Spirits, if you don’t mind.

See if I care.

“They call me Mr. Armand Bland

The dad-gum blandest Man

In all the Christian Land

Be off with spicy pepper flakes

And ersatz dried-up onion fakes

I use the blandest McCormick makes

No salt in the celery, if you please

To cause my gall bladder much unease

And bowels embarrassing release.”

He hid them in his beard.

When a guy named Herb Aceous starts talking about celery flakes, you have to listen.

Geez. I just turned the lazy susan. They are on the other side. Now get outa my kitchen!

Vlad has a cousin who speaks perfect English? Who knew?

bust a move!

Doesn’t he look like a villain in a Marvel movie? (I almost said ‘blockbuster,’ but it looks like Marvel doesn’t make those any more.

Bottled Onion Flakes saves a teary eyed moment. At the plant where the are packaged, Eye ball the right ball with happiness for real.

Parsley it is then.

This guy is a real “A o” …!

( & a flake )

When I’m in the mood for celery flakes nothing can stop me.

Make The Move with Oscar’s Moving Vans. Keep the Adjustment on a false Mr. Potato Head Game.

Twins have different finger prints. The One and Other Ones may be fat thumb prints, while the whole time skinny thumb prints, Danno and Crocker, was a loser of The Potato Head intensely heated matches.

Mr. Potato Head Game is usually a solitaire butt up on double solitaire for The Potato Groin Game.

I don’t eat celery flakes. They don’t hold up well in milk.

My move. I went to the grocery and bought some more Celery Flakes [not a breakfast cereal!].

Your move, Fuzz-Face….

Sell a what? To whom? But they’re all flakes.

I’ll just substitute with cloves, nobody will know the difference

Gonna break out the kale kernels!

OK! The S-what Team is on its way, A-o …!

( and happy father’s day )

You know what is funny about this? I swapped out the celery flakes for red pepper flakes two weeks ago, and he never noticed.

Ditch like Dennis Mitchel in a ditchel canal.

Sprinkled and drew while the bullet pitch was ground downs.

… Vlad hid the flakes in the Grape Nuts …

…where no one would ever find them…

… he thought about putting behind to the bouillon cubes…

…Miss Boss Lady had cornered the bok choy market…

…and Vlad had to admit that it tasted better…

…and looked better…

…and was better for you…

…but shooting up the celery patch like it was cases of Bud light …

…just led them heathens to using the celery flakes…

…the vegetable soup was going to be ruined…

…so entered the Grape Nuts fiasco…

…the delicious bok choy is worth it…

…he thought…

…human flesh tastes better inundated with much bok choy and msg…

…mmmm…

…people Kabobs…

….Vlad couldn’t wait to throw on the Barbie…

Which Karamazov brother is he? Answer: Lefty, the one who no longer juggles chain saws.
