Someone's looking for a Jell-O
mold ?
A quick snippet by a MIA amazon
July 2000
Nani was racking her brain to come up with where she had seen it. Not Dessy's place, nor
MissFeral's place. Definitely not Nannyboo 's although she had seen some glow in the dark
things that were worth investigating at another time.
So Nani headed towards Freya's place. "Maybe Miss Manners will be out. Although I
very much doubt she would have kept it." Nani silently entered the hut by the back
door. She started to open
Freya's kitchen cabinets. One by one. "No that's not it. But it's an interesting
shape of cake mold. Sov probably modeled for that. Or Freya took a cast.
"No, it is not here. Darn." Turning Nani came face to face with Miss Manners.
"Well, that is very rude of you to come into my house unannounced young lady. How
rude!" Miss Manners was tapping
her foot.
Nani made a face. "I was out of Jell-O and I remember that Freya had bought some
sparkling grape Jell-O for the new year celebration. And it's an emergency. We are
welcoming a new amazon
and it's not party without Jell-O (or crystal clear Party Ice. Help, I'm watching too much
Letterman, sorry).
"Oh, that a very bad kind of Jell-O dear, I put them in the trash, you should
use the plain lime Jell-O much more ladylike." Miss Manner answered.
"That's okay. I'll try SorboMart" and Nani zipped out of there like a bat out of
hell.
Next stop, KalliSta's place. With SHerk falling in love with Jell-O at last year New
year's Eve party, Kal had to make sure she had Jell-O all the time handy. She even got
those wiggling cutting thing. SHerk loved to make Alphabet's Jell-O. Maybe she had
*the* mold. Nani hoped.
Strife had been observing the race and getting very intrigued by it. "Hummm, I wonder
what kind of mold she's looking for."
Discord appeared in a mist of black feathers. "Idiot, she looking for *THE* mold.
Twit. Now I wonder if I could make an exchange with the one the war amazons had made.
Hummmmm."
Ares popped behind the dynamic duo. "Now, you don't mess with Nani or her search. And
Discord." Ares squeezed her neck. "Stay away from *MY* mold. Whisper has in
custody."
Nani went thru all of Kal's kitchen closet. No luck. "I bet Danaan's has it."
Nani ran out of Kal's bumping into SHerk at the door. "Hi SHerk. Bye SHerk."
Nani finally made it to Danaan's out
of breath but in one piece.
"Okay.. I have to knock. Danaan is home these days and she usually has company. I
mean I don't want to walk in on a game of hide and seek with Sov ever again." Nani
rang the front door's bell.
One ring. Nothing. Nani pressed the button again. Noting. Getting antsy Nani started to
presses the button in staccato without stopping.
"Yeah, yeah. Hold your horses." Danaan opened the door. She had a smear of
chocolate frosting on her nose. "What's up doc?"
"Danaan, I need *the* mold. It's for the party for welcoming Whisper. I need *it*
now."
"I don't have *it*. Sov, Darling. Where did you see *the* mold for the last
time?" Danaan yelled.
"I have no idea. But, baby, let's make another one." Sov yelled back.
"I think someone stole *the* mold. You should check with Chantal's maybe she
knows." And Danaan slapped the door in Nani's face.
"Well, how rude!!! Woa. I'm being possessed by the Hellish Miss M. Help! Okay, Nani,
calm down. Calm down. You can do this. Go see Chantal." Nani started running towards
Chantal's old church.
At Chantal's a pasta salad making party was in progress. (Yes, Freya pasta!!!!) Calico,
Ephiny, Castalia were prepared the garnishes. Chantal and Hilara were cooking the pasta.
Josée and
Julie were cutting celery and green peppers, Aphrael was rummaging into Chantal's spice
rack. "Do you have any paprika?"
Nani was out of breath and sweating when she finally made it there. Chantal welcomed her
exhausted friend with open arms and a glass of spiked lemonade. "Why are you running
around like a mad amazon Nani?" Chantal sat down next to her.
"I'm looking for *the* Jell-O mold. You know the one we did of Herk's you know..
Noone seems to know where it is?" Nani took a sip of her lemonade and went.
"OHHHHHHHHH!!! What is in that?" Nani was making a face.
"Oh, TabuMinstrel mixed that. I haven't tasted it yet. Why are you looking for *the*
mold? Don't you remember it was humm broken by accident at the last duct tape party. Oh
wait, you were out of
town that week end. I remember. Oh don't be sad, Nani." Chantal was patting her
friend's hand. "Guess what Tedras is bringing tonight at the welcoming celebration?
Plaster.."
A wicked grin appeared on Nani's face.. "Ohhhhhhhh. I love to mold things in
plaster."

somehow got awaken. Welcome Whisper. And anyone feel free to add to this.. I would
