    I have eaten grubs and they are best swallowed with a lot of fluids.

Obviously she did not notice the smoke coming from your pants which no doubt had already caught fire. As to your punishment, you got exactly what you deserved. Shame on you for telling one so naïve that she believed your evil lies.

    This is fiction, but it's from some I thought years ago. I was making Rice-aroni once and used baby shrimp. They look like grubs in the can. I thought it might be funny to switch them with grubs. Did I mention I was married once before.

    I figured that much, pulling a stunt like you did does not contribute to the health of a union.

This was a very well written short story about Janice and the grubs. I can only imagine the face when the baby shrimp or grubs on the plate. I could feel sick to. It really funny what we could possible eat and not even know it until after way! Great job as always! Blessings, Teri

Good for her, giving you the beating you received. No matter how you fry them, grubs ain't shrimp.This story was different from your usual poetry posts. When are you getting back to bakers dozen?

    I have three novels for which to get back. Pale Sisters, Baker's Dozen, and I think I'll expand on a short story, Final Exercise.

Gross. I say that in a good way. Funny, witty and clever. I just feel like I say the same thing over and over again to you, but I do love your stories and such and they are always clever, witty, and funny. Smiles!! TA ";~)

    You say the nicest things. You can copy and paste that on each response if you like. I may even print it out for inspiration.

A good spanking was well deserved. But I can't imagine anyone falling for that and going so far as to try eating them. That's funny. I think the beating was worth it. lol

Oh my goodness -- that's hilarious....doesn't say much for poor Janice, but hilarious just the same! :) A well-written short story with a wonderful light and welcome humor .... you should have a book of these for folks that might not like to read much at a time, but could start their day out with a smile from a short story like this one. :) Just a thought... Thanx for sharing! :) Yvette

Oh, my gosh this one certainly brings back memories of life with four brothers.
Evil wretches they were and ninjas at all forms of assassination-Well you know what I mean.
I enjoyed the topic and the short tale has the elements required-especially the twist in the tale ending.
Thoroughly enjoyable.
Blessings

This reminds me of someone who said hot sauce wasn't really hot, ate some, then kissed me. I didn't think it was funny, but this story of yours is! Grubs around here bite. There is a tree worm that looks like grubs that is used for fishing, but I can't spell it. Sounds like 'Ka tog a' worms. You can freeze them in a milk carton and when thawed, they start wiggling around again. Poor Janice! I say poor because I am not going to try her delicacy to find out if it tastes rotten. A suggestion below:
Not technically wrong and probably more sarcastic sounding the way it is, but suggestion anyway:

"Janice. Worms are like...."
Janice! Worms.... or Janice, worms are like....

Enjoyed!

HAHA, you tricker. I can imagine that Janice wouldn't've been too happy to learn those grubs weren't really yummy like shrimp after all.

I'm glad to know this is fiction, yes?

HA good one.

Gloria
