Who Needs Flour
Flour, who needs it?
I do! The cupcakes yell.
And me! Agreed the pie crust.
Me! Hollered brownies.
Me! Me! Me! The chili screamed.
Why do you need flour? Questioned the tomatoes.
The other soups snickered.
We all have to have flour for thickening, silly!
This was said by Potato Soup who is always a bit snotty.
I have to have flour! Said the cupboard.
I remember the time I did not have it
And my door got kicked really hard.
I remember that day! Yelled the canister set.
“I tell you, this screaming is coming from the kitchen.”
The kitchen door opened and the humans came in.
There was silence.
