The Abbreviated Adventures of Mogey & Smush Volume 431

Mogey and Smush had both eaten many a pizza in their day, but one rainy evening they dined on that delicacy together for the very first time. As they ate and tried to keep the leaking roof water from hitting their pie, Smush noticed a curious thing about Mogey's pizza-eating habits.

"You don't eat your pizza crusts, Mogey?" Smush asked in astonishment.

"Oh, I eat them," Mogey replied. "But I save them for 'smiles bonanza.' Just you wait."

They finished the pizza and Mogey was left with a mound of curved, uneaten crusts. He dashed into the other room, returning moments later with a tub of vanilla frosting.

"Smiles bonanza time!" Mogey shouted, dipping his first crust into the icing with gusto. "You see, Smush," Mogey went on, munching happily, "it would be unseemly to dip an entire slice of pizza in frosting. But no one can fault you for adding a little decoration to these cheery, smile-shaped crusts. It's a smiles bonanza!"
