TWO IN LOVE ARE SAVED FROM THE FATE OF THE DINNER PLATE

Sugar Beet and Spud the Stud were too much in love to face the fate of the dinner plate. The thought of waiting for a fork and knife to end their life as husband and wife was not an appetizing thought to ponder on.

The brand new bride confided her fear to Hubby Spud who eased her travail by devising a surprising plan that could not fail. He picked her up and squeezed her tight which was his connubial right, kissed her passionately and then dunked her in a pail of mud.

Sugar, was shocked and surprised at what Spud had done. She cried, he sighed and with a smile wiped the mud stained tears from her eyes.

“Just listen to my plan and you will understand why I covered you with mud,” Spud said and smiled. “It sounds wild, but it will work. When that jerk, the chef, sees you appear to be just a dirty old beet, not the sweet beet of my dreams, and I’m just a dirty old hot potato, he’ll take me and you off the menu and replace us with a can of peas or a bowl of rancid cottage cheese.”

Spud’s plan worked. It saved Sugar from the boiling pot and Spud from the frying pan. They were tossed in a garbage can, rotten and forgotten, and late that night went skinny dipping in a wishing well to wash away the dirt and smell.
