The little story
The Fizz with a Wusel Swirl
Flauschi had arranged the orange juice, mandarins and two glasses neatly on the table. Puschel only had to add the blueberries. It sounded like a completely safe job, even for him.
Puschel“I am only giving the drink a tiny bit of Wusel swirl,” Puschel promised.
With one enthusiastic stir, the blueberries rolled across the table. Flauschi held the pitcher steady as a blue-purple whirl danced through the orange drink.
Flauschi“The swirl was not tiny. But it did turn out rather pretty,” Flauschi said.
Puschel studied the two colours, took a careful sip and nodded happily. This time Flauschi only had to gather the berries—not clean the entire kitchen.
