Storyblogging Carnival LXXXVI
Welcome to the eighty-sixth Storyblogging Carnival. We have seven stories this time, including one of mine (which was submitted late, but I decided to allow it). Please enjoy.

Story in limerick form about my adventures in non-raking.


Food Presentation

A 237 word brief story rated G.

A tale of dumplings.


On the floor: first dance
by Causalien of Ultracrepidate
A 367 word brief story rated G.

“I am sorry, this other lady already booked me for the next dance.” I said as I grabbed a random girl around me for a dance. I apologized later for the rude behavior...


You still have to fill out the forms.
by Juliana of It's funnier that way

A lesson in correct behavior, this is the story of an obnoxious but otherwise harmless fat man who tests the patience of a long-suffering bus driver.

Sometimes you just got to let it all go, and laugh about it.


Something about the Fridge
