The diplodium celeri augmentum has an extremely fast growth rate which can sometimes catch the local livestock by surprise.

this is making me woozy...

Sheep dip. That's not chocolate.
Tzatziki?
I bet Thom Kincade never painted a sheep on a stick ("if you'd kept your sheep on a stick, you wouldn't have lost that one, would you!")
Reading the title of this post was entertainment enough.
The flowers are pollinated by Scotsmen wearing Wellingtons.
