Welcome to Fizzy Grove
Here are some things Fizzy Pineapple wonders about:
– If pro is the opposite of con, is progress the opposite of congress?
– Shouldn't there be a shorter word for monosyllabic?
– How many licks does it really take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?
– If nothing ever sticks to Teflon, how do they get Teflon to stick to the
pan?

I wash my hands (with soap) before I eat.
I do not eat and play games at the same time.
I take small bites, and I chew thoroughly before I swallow.
I sit down while I am eating instead of lying down or running around.
I do not talk while I am eating.
I do not sing while I am eating.
I do not laugh while I am eating.
I do not start food fights or make weird faces at the dinner table.
I help my parents clean up after meals. (Ouch! We probably got
you on that one.)
• I do not give food to my younger brothers and sisters without my
parents’ permission and when my parents are not around.
