The Gravy Boat Incident
It began as Spark’s proudest prototype: the Automated Gravy Boat 3000.
“Hands-free ladling!” Spark announced, sparks fizzing like confetti.
The first test run was… less ladle, more launch.
Gravy arced across the She Shed table in slow motion, narrowly missing Snugbitty’s clipboard and landing squarely on the “Reserved for Emotional Support Pie” label.
Thimble gasped, diving to shield the centerpiece plant, now dripping with turkey-scented gravy.
DotDot calmly unfolded a blueprint titled Emergency Fluid Dynamics Repair Plan, muttering, “This violates at least seven harmony principles.”
Pinky clapped her hands, half-laughing, half-panicked: “Next time, Spark, maybe test with water?”
The gravy boat hummed ominously, as if plotting its next move.
