Another Nursery Rhyme – Miss Muffet

The Boy keeps repeating Little Miss Muffet and it keeps going through my head. So I felt the need to do this, just for the heck of it.

Obviously, this is a failed marriage..

I too was stuck on how to execute the Fail theme, and so I went back to my recent nursery rhyme theme and this just popped into my head.

Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater
Had a wife and couldn’t keep her
He put her in a pumpkin shell
and there he kept her very well.
Sounds like a Failed marriage to me!

We couldn’t save him, so we made an omelet.

And here’s last week’s since I finished it yesterday – “Homage” to Tanguy.

Pet Peeves

The Pig is Peeved.

My IF for this week is late, because I hadn’t finished last week’s, so I’m posting them together.
I decided to play off the theme I had started in Leap .. Mother Goose nursery rhymes– and to try to replicate the style.
So, what do you think? Cool?

Heavy

The queen is not a small woman, in fact, she’s quite heavy from her diet of bread and honey.

Jack is also going to be the logo for this month’s April Fool contest.
