In Memoriam
Fluffkin Shapeshift Potion was left out in the snow and is now a very small iceberg. Visitors welcome.
Gone but not forgotten: Double Chocolate Cone. Dr_Tex_Dr_Com dropped it in a puddle in Mossmire. Neither has been the same since.
Pot Lid Shield was eaten at a picnic in Whisperwood. The ants send their regards. So does Bellissimo.

A comet is easy: one tail, lots of confidence. If it sulks, it can be a very small black hole.
pudding_detective writes: “Is the Wobbling Pudding Dome getting smaller?”
Dollop McGee says no. My telescope says there is pudding on Dollop McGee's chin.
gloomy_gal_99 writes: “Why is Gloomhollow always dark?”
The sun sets there first. That is why every lamp in Glimmeria is lit there, and carried out along the roads each dusk.
