“Her name is Euphonia Elvira Eloise Edwards. She is an Electrical Engineer,” replied Mr. Phrog. “I met her is San Francisco by the water fountain near Height Asbury. She was sitting by a cardboard box, which she was turning into a magnificent liquor cabinet while she was mixing up some hamburger helper to use in case the worst-case scenario came true and she had to engage in specialized endeavors and feed those longitudinal sleepers nearby. I fell in love instantly. I was also impressed that she was reading the autobiography of Phineous Phrog, the Philanthropist and practicing the fine art of marginalia as she sat there with a boa made of ostrich feathers draped around her comely shoulders. She took one look at me and knocked the box of laundry detergent into the fountain which immediately began spewing forth bubbly froth. I summoned every bit of fortitude I had left after seeing this wonderful damsel, dropped to one knee and proposed on the spot.”

"The Gypsy fortune teller sitting beside her said that her prognosis was that the partnership would be a success." the Phrog went on.

“How wonderful!” said Saydie and Sallyie Salamander simultaneously. When can we meet her?”

Next Week's Ten Word Challenge will be: follow-up, buffalo wings, silversmith, furniture, as the crow flies, little red roadster, photograph, pencil pusher, argument, streaking

And for the Mini Challenge: Ireland, mashed potatoes, book worm, fog horn, T.S. Eliot

I'm so happy for Phrog. I love his fiance's name and can't wait for the wedding and the further adventures of the two Phrogs and the sisters. Great as always.
