Humor will not be tolerated!! -Portia

objective: to collectively write a silly story
rules: 1. Use only one noun (proper nouns are not limited by this rule) per post
2. the noun in the next post must follow alphabetically (A: I had an apple B: that got eaten by a bear)

Have at it!!

Now that we've started the story off, you can do the alphabetical order thing, or, if you have a super awesome idea, forget the ABC rule.

Once there was a caterpillar

which was capable of turning into a dolphin?

Being the most valuable transformative device, eggplants were cultivated and highly sought.

The ferret desperately wanted to eat the

gumbo, but alas, all it had was gum bo fu.
