Total Turtle Tea Trolley

[Welcome. This entry will always be on top. New entries begin below.]

The meadow, or “metmow” in the dialect of its inhabitants, is a peaceful, pastoral place, filled with imaginary animals, tied only loosely to our own world. As with many pastoral places, there is little strife, or want, or unhappiness. This would seem to make the metmow unsuitable for stories. Stories require trouble, conflict, risk. Somehow, the creatures of the metmow live without very much of these things. They do have needs, however, and one of their main needs is for a regular and reliable source of snacks. In the distant past, snacks for all but the very young were the province of the Amalgamated Meal and Snack Bunnies. Now, however, their duties have been assumed by the organization known as the Total Turtle Tea Trolley. Led by a Chief Tea Turtle, six Under Tea Turtles push the silver, wheeled trolley, laden with tea and snacks, wherever hungry creatures are to be found. This blog will describe their appearances — what they wear, and what treats they convey. At times, other metmow creatures will appear.

Whether these accounts will surprise and delight the reader is a matter of conjecture, but they have pleased certain small audiences. If they bore, seem twee, or tire, all that will happen is that they remain in obscurity. If they please, I would be happy to know of it.

I remain, the Chronicler of the Total Turtle Tea Trolley.
