Bedtime stories a la Kiernan

"What kind of story would you like tonight?"

"A juice story"

"A juice story.... ok..."

"Not the one where I turn into an apple"

"Ok... well, what kind of a juice story?"

"The kind where the juice is on fire"

"Right.... can you give me an idea of how that one goes?"

"Ok. There was some juice, and it was one fire. And it ran around the house saying "HELP!!!! HELPP!!!! I'M ON FIRE!!! SOMEONE UNFIRE ME!!! HELPPP!! And then Kiernan came and unfired the juice. And then there was some water and it was on fire and it ran around the house yelling HELPP!! HEEEELLLLPPPP!! I'M ON FIRE!!! SOMEONE UNFIRE ME!!! and then Kiernan unfired the water. And then there was was a table and it was on fire and it ran around the house YELLING HEELLPP HELPPP I'M ON FIRE!!! And Kiernan unfired the table and then it went home"

"Wow. Is that the end?"

"NO! And then there was a chair and it was on fire and it was yelling HEEEELPP HELPPPP I'M ON FIRE! And then Kiernan unfired it and it went home.

so. Can you tell me that story?"

"Well... you just told it, so maybe I don't need to tell it back to you."

"Mommy, I couldn't hear it when I was telling it. You tell it now"

"Once upon a time there was some juice. And it was on fire.....
