The Risotto Eaters by Ermyntrude Cluck-Off
Chapter 2.
Morning was still broken as The Risotto Eaters had been far too busy photographing each other to try to fix it. The man of the house had had a massive delivery from Amazon. He’d photographed six outfits as possible candidates for the unboxing video he would make that day. After much deliberation he wore a collar up ginger tweed polo shirt and a nice fawn cravat. The lady of the house was filming in her dressing gown so the man decided to wear his too. So Noel Coward (whoever he was)!
The filming would take place in ‘The Business Man’s Office’ - a barely used room in the little bungalow. The man of the house was excited to film the contents of the boxes because he could really make an epic vlog of quite possibly 35 minutes if he tried hard to include a few business calls. But, what was in the boxes I hear you ask? Yes gentle reader; you cleverly got it in one…It was a joblot of foxproof wool! A metric ton of it to be precise! He - the man of the house, was going to jolly well knit a chicken tractor.
Meanwhile, in The Fragrance Garret, as a nod to
National Wasted Shirt Waister Day, the Lady of the house was colouring in some egg boxes. She loved her crayons. They were all varying shades of green. They were her absolute favourites so she had many, many of them. As she crayoned her way through the morning an idea struck her. YES! This would make her fortune
! She would design a tiny little green stamp to stamp her eggs with! The stamp would be in the shape of a shield to imply quality and collectability. She was a genius.
