A Secret Under the Egg Cup

I dashed straight across the breakfast table to tell you—I'm Dumpal! D-U-M-P-A-L! Best friend alert! But wait, look what caught my eye right after: a little blue ceramic egg cup turned completely upside down on a cork coaster! Balancing my tiny dish high overhead so it wouldn't wobble off, I tiptoed between the fork tines and gave the cup a solid nudge with my middle leg. Clink! It rolled onto its side, revealing a single bright red cherry stem coiled inside like secret treasure! I gave it an excited poke, completely thrilled by what was hiding underneath.
