AHEM!!!!!
It was tough being the only fat one in a family filled with skinny-minnies.
I had planned to be much slimmer for the annual family reunion. Sadly, my intentions were bigger then the actual results, so it was just a matter of moments before my scrawny cousins were huddled together whispering. Snatches of their conversation drifted over to me… “Omar the Tentmaker…they raised the Titanic?…”
Damn them. I couldn’t help it if I had a slow metabolism. And if they kept watching me how was I ever going to be able to get some slices of Aunt Gertrude’s famous pies?
Suddenly I was seized with a brilliant idea!
I clapped my hands together. “I have an announcement everyone! “Surprise! I’m pregnant!”
My Aunt’s gathered around me. “Oh, what blessed news, dear. Here. Let me get you a piece of pie!”
I squinted my eyes meanly at my cousins. “Take that you skinny …”
Sorry readers. I ran out of words. You will have to imagine the final one. mwahahahahahahahahahahaha!

LOL, good one!
Jenny! I love how she got around her mean skinny cousins and some wonderful pie from her aunt.
Clever indeed!
Blessings
I fear she's gonna have some 'splainin' to do!
Great job! I found this prompt to be a hard one...took me quite a while to come up with something - and ending up just telling the truth.
Wow!! This was awesome!!
I really thought you were pregnant!! My goodness this is awesome!! LOL!!!
with warm regards

The sad thing is when you get to the age (as I have) that the pregnancy ruse just ain't gonna work...
;)
I am at that age, so can't use that one either!! xo
Congrats Jenny!

BRAVO dear friend BRAVO! Hilarious...
uh huh. you ran out of words......right. You just wanted to keep it PG. :)
I loved it.
I used to hate when people would ask my due date and I wasn't pregnant! Now, with grayer hair, wrinkles and age spots, they know for a fact, I'm just fat!
haha great post... This afternoon I told one of the waitress at a restaurant we frequent "Do you wanna hear my news?" She thought I was going to say I was pregnant but instead I told her I was going to be a grandma. She was a little shocked to say the least.
do we have to imagine g rated words? great take on the prompt Jenny, gave me a chuckle!!!
Clever way to get that pie, but at my age, I don't think it would work.
LOL! Very funny, Jenny! I think the final word you are missing is bit...oops, I mean witches! Great job!
I bet I know what the last word is....starts with a "B" and ends with an "S"? Skinny "B"....."S"! Some of these skinny "B"....."S" end up with bigger backsides than us fluffly girls! I think God has a sense of humor too.
I say go for the pie and do an hour on the treadmill.~Ames
PRICELESS....
I just love this! It made me laugh. Absolutely brilliant, that's what.
