The Abbreviated Adventures of Mogey & Smush Volume CCCXXVII

"What should we have for lunch today, Smush?" Mogey asked one cool weekend morning.

"How about deviled eggs?" Smush volunteered. Mogey gasped in horror, his eyes wide and his nostrils wiggling at the audacity of Smush's suggestion.

"Deviled eggs on a Sunday?" Mogey exclaimed. "How dast you?"

"What's wrong with that?" Smush asked.

"What's wrong with that?" Mogey repeated incredulously. "What's wrong with that? Have you gone mad? No deviled foods of any kind are allowed on Sundays! It's a hard and fast rule: no deviled ham, no deviled spam, and certainly no deviled eggs."

"Well what should we have then?" Smush queried, rolling his eyes.

"To counteract the impudence of your first suggestion I'd say we should have angeled eggs," Mogey replied. "Or mere-mortaled eggs at a bare minimum."
