Princess Maybeline Is Hungry By: Mrs. Brown (the Queen)

Once upon a time there was a little princess named Maybeline.

She lived in a beautiful castle with her maid servant

(who, in this story, is also the Queen),

and the Joker

(who, on this day like all days, was working very hard).

Well one day, Princess Maybeline's tummy rumbled.

She decided she was very hungry.

So her maid servant/Queen quickly bustled in the kitchen trying to find something that she knew Princess Maybeline would love.

"I've got it!" the Queen exclaimed,

"Bananas!"

Oh Princess Maybeline did love it.

For about 2 seconds.

Then, pitch!

Out went the bananas.

Trying to make the little princess happy, the Queen dashed back into the kitchen to find something else.

"But what? she asked herself. "Apricots!"

Oh Princess Maybeline did love it!

For about 2 seconds.

Apparently Princesses don't eat apricots!

So pitch!

Out went the apricots.

So once again the Queen went back to the kitchen,

this time a little less anxious,

to see what she could find.

"Now I've got it! A toothbrush."

She did like it!

For about 2 seconds.

Then, pitch!

Out went the toothbrush.

"Okay," thought the Queen,

"What in the world does she want?

How about a random chip clip."

Well that was all right.

But only lasted for 1 second.

Then, pitch!

Out went the chip clip.

Princess Maybeline was quickly losing her patience.

So was the Queen.

But with love in her heart, the Queen went back to kitchen.

A little frazzled and annoyed.

"A wet rag. She always loves to suck on a wet rag."

But sadly, this time, she did not.

So, pitch!

Out went the rag.

Princess Maybeline then huffed.

And puffed.

Cried.

and hollered.

She was not getting what she wanted.

And now all that she once had was lifeless on the floor.

Begging for a second chance.

But no, the princess would not have it!

And neither would the Queen.

So the Queen decided right then and there that was more than enough demands for one lunch time.

"I know exactly what this Princess needs," she said.

So out went the princess.

Safely and snugly in her bed.

For a nice, long nap.

And so...

did the Queen.
