Tatter-Tots: A Short Story

Curley sat on a small hand-carved stool that his grandfather had made many years ago to think about the day's events. After a while of collecting his thoughts, Curley stood up from his chair and walked over to a chest that stored his rations of the food. He took out a fist sized piece of bread and milk that was stored in a small clay jar. He spotted a small glass bottle in the lower right-hand corner of the chest. Curley poured a small bit of milk into the tiny glass and took a sip of the slightly soured beverage.

"Miss Trefusis was all bones and grey skin, and when she walked her body was bent forward in a long curve like a boomerang" (The Voyage Out, 32.2). From what Dahl wrote about Miss Trefusis she was a rather dotty person, while she was talking with Dahl she was eating an orange. But not just peel and eat, no she was intricately cutting the barrier around the fruit with her knife, after that she would use her knife and fork and peel away the segments. She would then cut the fruit delicately and eat them with her fork. Dahl had asked 'Do you always eat an orange like that?’ (The Voyage Out, 43) and she responded with ‘I never touch anything I eat with my fingers,' (The Voyage out, 46) "They're full of bugs. Disgusting dirty things, fingers. Just think what you do with them!" (The Voyage Out, 52) She believes that if you don’t sterilize

Eckerts was my first job. Also, was the worst job of my life. I was a busser and dealt with gross, slimy people. Customers that would just leave nasty chicken bones and gravy spread all over the table and thrown all over the floor. Leading me to never have any desires toward fried chicken or gravy. EVER AGAIN. Thoughts of chicken dangling with someone else's saliva dripping off the bone leaves me wanting to gag. Notions about gravy, leave me thinking about the circular bowls Eckerts puts it in; the thick brown liquid sloshing around in the bowl slapping my skin. This disgusting liquid left my skin feeling sticky and crusty. Nothing was worse than the two combined in the same bowl. The aroma of fried chicken makes my stomach heavy with vomit.

To begin with, Young Roald Dahl meets a special woman named Miss Trefusis during his adventure to Mombasa. A trait that Miss Trefusis can be described as in the text is unique. Miss Trefusis is concluded to be unique because she doesn't use her hands to eat. According to the text, Paragraph 42 on sentences 2-5 ("The Voyage Out") Roald stated, "She speared it from the bowl with a fork instead of using her fingers." He then continues on with,"And now, with knife and fork,

“Some say the goblin introduced darkness and was cursed to wander through the Forbidden Forest forever.”

First the atronaut squirted drinking water into the washcloth and rang it out. The water began to bunch over the rag and made a "tube" of water. The water hung over the rag and stuck to his hands like jello.

Since the advent of this dream, which she could no longer date or situate, she had shied away from too avid appetites, though she still possessed them, and had approached food cautiously, sometimes renouncing it altogether. While her ideal remained food of luscious sweetness and drippings – jellies, puddings, custards – she trained herself to eat only what was natural, and little enough of that still. Fear of missing the ring kept her teeth closed before the fork could penetrate them, kept her eyes on her plate, seeing in one rapid survey what the food might conceal, and raising her head at last, as if to say, there is nothing for me in this, knowing that the dream would go on, and more, so that she could visualise the cake and the ring even when she was awake, so that if she longed for sweet food, as she frequently did, she would immediately see the ring falling on the plate, after which the food would be

There didn't seem to be much around to eat but some nuts that had fallen from a tree. Being a smart witch she knew that she could cast back spongify charm and make the nuts soft enough to chew. Speaking the incantation "songify" and moving her wand in an "S" motion Lucinda created her dinner. The nuts were going to take some chewing. The hard shell was softer, but the rubbery texture made her feel she was eating one of the Weasleys strange concoctions. After eating her less than delicious meal Lucinda fell asleep. When she next opened her eyes she was in the Slytherin common room. Some of the Slytherins were not the most friendly of students. This dream just kept going on and on. One of the Slytherin boys started teasing her about her tangled hair and dirty clothes. After all she had been falling in marshlands, sleeping under trees, running about gardens, climbing out of closests and walking through a forest all night. The more he teased the more other boys joined in. And the more upset Lucinda became. When she had just about reached her limit a friend appeared, literally, out of thin air. It was Sir Nicholas due Mimsy, the house ghost for her own house, Griffindor. The air all around them became

Near the bigginning of time, there existed an exquisite Greek island in the middle of the glorious Mediterranean Sea. Every day the sun would blaze down upon the idyllic place, making the calm waves shimmer and sparkle like precious diamonds.

Le Xin fills half of her cup with water and sits on the chair. She looks at the food colouring and says, “I want green”. Gladys and Rieyann said, “Okay you take green”. She smiles at then and takes the eye dropper. She squeezes the eye dropper and releases to suck the green food colouring and squeezes the liquid out into the water. She squeezes slowly the colouring and watches the colour change in the water. She says, “Wow, so nice. My water change to green”. Rieyann said, “Wow, Look how the colour changes” Le Xin smiles. The teacher asks her to place the flower in the water. She said, “Later my flower will change to green!” The teacher

First Fragilepast had been injured and now there was a death, a child's death. Padding up with the mother Kate opened her mouth to say something before realizing how dry it was. She wished she could bring others back to death but she just wasn’t that magical. Even if she could she would probably question the whole should something dead stay dead. “I’m sorry for your lost.” she mumbled, her yellow eyes unable to look at the dead kid. Looking at the dead creature who brought the kids life to an end, she continued to find herself lost for words.

'Hello, my lovelies, I’m Mrs Tiffin. Have you come to look around?' As she stirred a large pot on the stove, Clemmie peered over the rim, then, when Mrs Tiffin held up the wooden spoon, she blew on it, and offered it for Clemmie to taste.
