A friend challenged me to name 10 items that I would least like to find in my Easter basket. It’s a strange exercise, but the juxtaposition of mismatching elements has a quirky fascination to it if you squint hard enough.
Here is my list.
- solar forks
- aluminum napkins
- propane-powered hairbrush
- liver-flavored lollipops
- chewless gum
- glass toothpicks
- balsa wood razor blades
- Petoskey stone Frisbees
- triangular bicycle tires
- barbed wire socks
If you try this with your friends, feel free to share the results.
