What's Inside That Easter Egg? Can I Look-See? Can I? Huh! Can I?







by Harley Quinn, MPL "Cub" Reporter







It's my first big assignment!  My first solo story, my first byline. . . .  This is soooo egg-citing!  I'm supposed to investigate the mysterious Easter eggs that were left in the staff mailboxes at my Library.  Here's the one found in Scowl-Face's mailbox:

Curious Hard-Shelled Easter Egg
Lurking in Scowl-Face's Mailbox

This egg has a strangely rigid, hard shell that feels slippery on the surface--not wet but difficult to hold in your paws.  When you push it over, it rolls a few times, and you can (gasp!) hear something rolling around inside the shell!  It's simultaneously puzzling and enticing.  What could it be in there?  What could it be?!

Can I break open the egg, Cauli?  Can I?  Huh?  Just a quick look-see.  Please, please, please, please, can I please?  Pretty please?

(Calm yourself, Harley.  This is why she's still a "cub" reporter.  -- Cauli Le Chat.)

Okay, I just can't stand it another minute!  That egg must be broken now!

What's All This Then?
Where's the Fluffy Winged Dinner?

This is certainly not what I eggs-pected.  There appear to be about a half dozen hard-shelled sweet chocolate hideaways (most likely they are people snacks), along with a sweet-smelling and -tasting chewy red dude--probably also a people snack.  I'll ask the Lady With the Red Hair to subject them to various chemical and physical tests.  She's an authority on chocolate.

Test results are in!  After performing a mastication test, the Lady With the Red Hair has scientifically determined that
  • The chocolate hard-shells are chewable and tasty;
  • The sweet red dude is like a gummy bear and laced with sugar;
  • Red dude is also chewable and tasty.
There you have it!  Sweet red dude is delicious!  Little round hard-shell chocolate hideaways are likewise delicious.  Quite a pleasant culinary surprise in this green Easter egg.

There was no indication who left the Easter eggs behind in the Library staff mailboxes.  I can only surmise that it must have been the Easter bunny.  The evidence is compelling:  Unnaturally hard, slick eggshells . . . chocolate hideaway chewables . . . sweet little red dudes.  The deduction is obvious.

I am eagerly awaiting reports from my Library colleagues to determine the contents of their eggs.  Until then, I remain,
