Nursery Rhyme Redo: Little Miss Muffet


Little Miss Muffet
Collapsed on her tuffet
She hated curds and whey
When the little ol' spider
Sat down beside her
She gave her curds away.

Dig it! I have two picky kids, so your version is a lot more realistic.

Fun. I would have done the same!

dustus- Thanks, and that's just what I'd do with them!

tolbert- Oh, I am so not political. Thanks for visiting.

Talon- Thank you! These are fun.

Brian- I am right there with you on the lima beans.

Matt Coughlan- Hey, I still don't like limas.

Yeah, who the heck likes curds??? Maybe baked into am amazing cheesecake, with a graham cracker crust and that succulent sour cream layer on top. Yummy!!

Fun poem, Dear Linda.

Nicely done Linda. Very clever!

I would rather wait until someone makes the curds into cheese. Saddam didn't like them either... no silly, Kurds not cheeses!

When the little ol' spider sits beside me, I throw everything in the air trying to get away. Muffut just gave up the curds!

Linda said...

Jannie- Curds no, cheesecake yes!

Nicky- Thank you, and I agree about the curds.

Stafford Ray- Cheese is good! I don't think anyone likes curds.

meleah rebeccah- Thank you!!

Linda- Ah, you're giving that spider way too much power.
