In the troll cave, four Yule Lads grabbed at stuff that went
skidding and flying around from the earthquake.
Suddenly, one troll with an abnormally large nose stopped and stared at
the ceiling, his eyes glazed over and head cocked as if listening to a far-away
melody of beautiful music.
It was Door Sniffer.
He turned his head this way and that, his huge nose quivering as he
inhaled deeply. Mmmmm – sweetbread and
cookies! His eyes grew wide. From the smell of it, a very large
amount! Tons! Heaps! Masses!
A Plethora! He smacked his
troll-lips and drooled in anticipation.
His troll brothers knew that look on his face. Pot Licker, Stufer and Spoon Licker were sure
to follow where-ever that talented nose would lead.
As everyone knew, the best treats were homemade and the
process created great piles of dirty bowls, pots and pans, and spoons
galore! They had to reach them before
some industrious person washed them! The
great gooey globs and sticky stuff scrubbed clean from spoons and washed down
the drain! Pot Licker, Spoon Licker and
Stufer looked at each other in horror – they must find this wonderful kitchen!
“Uh, oh,” Door Sniffer said, “I smell something else. Quick, grab the Galdur Pokan!”
