Farmer A and Farmer B planned to have a race.

Farmer A said, “If you win, I’ll give you three bottles of fresh milk. If I win, give me a basket of eggs from your finest chickens.”

Farmer B answered, “How about this: if you win, I’ll give you my finest chickens, and if I win, give me your two new calves.”

Why did Farmer B suggest changing the prizes?

I look forward to your answers!

Oooh thank you! Here are my three:

1. I used to have an uncanny ability for catching butterflies. I could just pick them off flowers, and would keep them in cups with twigs and leaves until I released them at the end of the day 🦋

2. My favourite tea is lavender and purple anchan, because it’s blue but turns pink when you squeeze lemon juice into it 🍵

I’m still not used to drawing masculine features and not knowing how I want his hand to be doesn’t help, but I hopefully someday I’ll post the finished piece!

I feel my soul knows something ever more beautiful than anything I can see in this world, although undisturbed natural places do resonate with me, and in everything I’m constantly searching for something which feels like it. Most things seem to have a missing part, something intrinsic others don’t seem to realise is absent.

I notice every scrap of litter skittering along the kerb, every broken bottle and crushed can there, the way every country is adopting the same bland concrete-glass-steel architecture, the way everywhere is a mess of potholed tarmac (left as is or blistered with haphazard fillings) and wonky concrete and smashed pavement, the hot stench of car fumes and puddles of beer and worse left festering in alleyway corners for weeks, and it’s all so draining.
