A Short Story

One time a group of Lichtenstein bandits came storming across the countryside to the little village of Neine to steal all the fair maidens and chocolate chip cookies in the land. They had quite a taste for cookies and no way to make their own. For you see, chocolate was banned in their country. Along with mascarpone cream. The fair maidens? Well, who could deny stealing fair maidens who were also fabulous bakers?

"Sir, sir!" said one such fair maiden, "You must save our village from the angry Lichtenstein bandits. They are bitter without chocolate and sweet maiden voices to sooth them after a hard days work in the field." "Ah yes, my fair lady," said the Soldier, "your cookies are delicious and none can compare." "I shall send my strongest lad and his trusty horse, Hourglass, to your aid."
The young soldier was sent out on his bandit beatin' horse, Hourglass, to protect the fair maidens and chocolate chip cookies of the village of Neine. He fought tirelessly with his fellow soldiers until all of the cookies and maidens were safe and sounds in their bakeries. The soldiers successfully fought off the Lichtenstein bandits and sent them home to their trout pies and pet goats.


-The End-


Maybe your time would have been better spent listening to Sugar Sugar with your honey. Oh well, thanks for visiting, and be happy you don't live in Lichtenstein!

P.S. Thank you Connor Prairie for hosting Civil War Days and PW for your Old West Action. This life changing post would not have been possible without you both.

About A Cupcake for Moose

Combining my childhood nickname of “Moose” and a sincere passion for all things sweet, A Cupcake for Moose was formed in 2009. Follow along this Midwesterners joyful, slightly dorky, always unique perspective on life as I seek to glorify God through photos, stories, recipes and laughter. With my wild at heart husband, Mr. Schalk, our two babies, "Cricket" and "Chief", and our crazy pup, Bonnie, it is sure to be an adventure!
