Competition Round Two: Tom Swifties

Congratulations to Austin's own FOODIE52!

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

I don't understand why rappers have to hunch over while they stomp around the stage hollering.  It hurts my back to watch them. On the other hand, I've been thinking that perhaps I should start a rap group here at the Old Folks' Home.  Most of us already walk like that.

And some more :

"I love the texture of deep fried potato slices” he enunciated crisply.

“Whisk those eggs would you?” he requested airily.

“Squeeze my lemon, until the juice runs down my leg”, demanded Robert Plant tartly.

“Don’t be a gooseberry” he implored sourly.

“You couldn’t chop an onion if your life depended on it” he remarked cuttingly.

“I’m going to remove the outer layer of the skin of that orange!” he announced zestfully.

Better late than never:

I didn't enter the contest, but once you start thinking about something like this it can become an obsession.

"It's easy to get pancakes browned on both sides." he said flippantly.

"I don't have time to eat today." hey stated fastly.

"Roast at a very low temperature for a long time." he stated slovenly.

"I refuse food." he held fast.

"No, I said 1/4 Cup!" the instructor issued fourth.

My favorite,

"I detect a minute amount of a green leafy herb" said the Chef parsely.

SB (now, back to your regularly sceduled program)

I thought I entered this in the contest, but I can't tell, so here it is again (because once you've come up with something so awful, it's impossible to keep it to yourself):

"Let's nip upstairs for a drink," said Tom dramatically.
