Wolves in da Hood

Wolves in da Hood
This week in SSC:

"Fairytale" (can be sweet, funny, nightmarish etc...)


Brace yourself for a happy ending. :)

Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Little Red Riding Hood. She often walked through the darkest part of the forest to take a basket of goodies to her grandmother. One day along the way, she met up with a pack of very scary looking chenille wolves and they were very hungry too. She feared for her life.

Luckily she was a quick-thinking little girl and remembered that during the week grandma always did her grocery shopping and would buy treats for the stray dogs in the neighborhood. She promised the wolves that if they would escort her safely on her journey (even though they were probably the only danger) that they would each be rewarded with as many treats as they could ever want. The wolves agreed and they all lived happily ever after. :)


Moral of the story: It pays to keep treats on hand. :D



...and for Sight and Sound

In unserer Region gibt es schon sehr lange wieder Wölfe. Ob die sich mit Süßigkeiten bestechen lassen? :-)

Die typische Szenerie für "Rotkäppchen und der böse Wolf" der Gebrüder Grimm.
Mit dem Unterschied, daß hier viele Wölfe unterwegs sind - und wunderbar lila !

And a happy ending for all. ;-)

The purple wolves look quite benign- they must be because Little Red Riding Hood's basket is empty;-)

Actually her little basket has many things for grandma underneath the napkin. A bottle of wine and some cookies even. ;-)

Thank you, Carol. I remember always dreading the awful ending to so many fairytales as a child so here was a chance at a happy ending for all (even the wolves.) ;-)

And that song was just too good to pass up! :D
