Perfection. I would write this Coconut Milk a love letter, but I have eaten it.

In Memoriam
Paper Dye Drop has left us for the Rummage Stump. Byte_Nibbles waved it off with a small hanky.
Tomato Soup passed on quietly in Player_Two's backpack after being sat on. It was flat, but at peace.
Flower Garland was eaten at a picnic in Cogwhistle. The ants send their regards. So does Frosting_Fae.
Ask Stargazer Wren
Wren answers letters between star counts. "I have lost my place twice tonight," he writes. "Three times."
scared_of_ghosts writes: “Are there real ghosts in Gloomhollow?”
I have watched the hollow every October night for years. I have seen two sheets, a moth and one very brave Drizzlet. No ghosts.
nibblit_nerd writes: “Which cheese is the best cheese?”
The moon, if it is cheese. My charts say it is not, but a scientist keeps an open mind.
drizzlet_dad writes: “My Drizzlet rained on the sofa again. What should I do?”
Tell it a joke. A happy Drizzlet makes rainbows, and rainbows are much easier to dry.
