Frumpy Sally the Happy Face Drawer

There once was a girl named Sally.  She dressed quite frumpy but fortunately everywhere she went, she drew happy faces.  First she would make them green and then they might be silver.  Later they would be red or blue and finally the last one she made would be yellow.  I liked Sally when we met, but her sense of humor was really a little bit funny for her frumpiness.  She liked to eat carrots alot and when she ate them, she would stick them in her nose first and then draw a smiley face with the remaining carrots in her plate.   I thought this was going to make me sick but I really have to say that as time has gone by, I am ok with this display and if it did make Frumpy Sally happier, so be it.   But that said, I took the carrot out of my nose that she put there one day.  It did not fit me well and I did not like the nostril being stretched out so much.
So if you meet Frumpy Sally, just ask her for a radish.  She never puts them in her nose and she doesn't eat many of them either.
