Fourth Challenge Results (It could last all week)

September 8, 2008

Another excellent haiku week! Let’s get right to the Pass the tater tots entries.

There were a some opinions on cooking and serving suggestions:

From Lesa:

Pass the tater tots
Really deep fry them to hell
‘Cause baked is fake, yo.

[Props on the “yo”. Word.]

and

Pass the tater tots
And serve them with tartar sauce
Nerds like them that way.

From Michelle:

Pass the tater tots
slathered in gravy; the cat
licks her white whiskers.

From Q:

Pass the tater tots:
Freezer burn frosts the edges.
Hot potato cold.

From me:

Pass the tater tots
and hot fudge, now! PMS
is no joke, asshole.

And from Kevin:

Pass the tater tots.
The children refuse to eat
The brussel sprouts.

Kevin also made a political statement:

Pass the tater tots.
Sarah Palin is coming.
There is no time left.

and gave us a history lesson:

Pass the tater tots.
Napoleon Dynomite
Revived this old dish.

Wes went automotive:

Pass the tater tots.
They fit in the fuel hole fine.
My car runs funny.

All were wonderful, but I had to go with Deborah’s haiku, which made me laugh out loud:

Pass the tater, tots!
If we cut it up real small,
It could last all week.

Our new first line is It could last all week; I can’t wait to see what you all do with that. I will be back next Monday with Deborah’s pick.

Yours,
Joanna
