Strictly Vegetables

by Molly Roberts

In a small cottage, there was a fridge but not just a normal food fridge a fridge that could change a vegetables life!

This fridge has a stage that is made for vegetables to dance on. The stage is on an empty shelf and there is a magical sparkling plate right at the edge of the fridge, this is for the judges, CRAIG LEMON HORWARD, DARCY GRAPE BUSLE, SHIRLEY STRAWBERY BALAS and last of all we have BRUNO TOTALLY BANANAS TOMYOLLY!

Every night when the time is right, and the door is tightly closed. In the fridge there is a dance off, also known as strictly vegetables!

Dadudadadadada dadada da dah!

"Introducing the green beans doing the jive" The two green beans took to the floor and flicked and kicked while the audience of broccoli cheered with excitement "woo hoo, go green beans!"

Craig Lemon Horward said "horrible!" The other judges said "awesomely cool!" Craig said "3" which was the opposite of what the other judges thought because they said "100 billion!"

Then the tantalising tango danced by the tomatoes, when it came to comments Craig Lemon Horward got up onto his feet and said "you are not a vegetable you are a fruit! This is supposed to be a vegetable dance contest! "But that was the best dance ever!" cried Bruno Totally Bananas Tomyolly, "it was totally tangfastic, let the fruit join in!"

The next dance was the asparagus with the American smooth, they took to the floor and it was smooth and silky. Then it was the waltz by the watercress, when the fennels did there fox trot there was an uproar from the crowd when Craig Lemon Horward gave them a zero! The rhubarb did their rumba and it made the shelf rumble up and down, down and up, left to right, and right and left. The parsnips did a punchy pasadobla, the carrots a crazy cha cha cha!

The next morning the fridge door opened, and the lights came on. Time for the results, the first one to get picked out by the girl is..... The vegetables stood still like icebergs, the girl picked up an apricot yogurt then she picked up ... the rhubarb!!! The rhubarb was eaten for breakfast.

When the door closed all the vegetables sighed with relief that they were still in the competition.

At lunch time the girl opened the fridge and took out the carrot and parsnip, they are out and going to get made into soup!

At tea time the asparagus, green beans, water cress and fennels all got taken out and eaten.

The fridge door closed and Shirley Strawberry Balas cried "we have a winner - The tomatoes!" Even Craig Lemon Horwood said they deserved it. The audience cheered and the two tomatoes celebrated their victory, they partied all night with their vegetable chums and fruity friends.

Remember to eat your five a day so you don't spoil the dance off fun in your fridge. Dadudadadadada dadada da dah!
