A Strawberry Swirl Surprise

I slipped out through the courtyard gate and trotted down the sunny sidewalk toward the sweet-smelling parlor on the corner. Hopping onto an empty patio bench, I peeked onto the smooth wooden tabletop. Resting there beside an empty cup was a clean pink plastic ice cream spoon with a round scalloped handle. I patted the curved scoop with both front paws, making it wobble like a tiny seesaw! Leaning down, I nudged the handle with my nose until it spun in a smooth circle, pointing right toward a colorful picture of a strawberry sundae. It felt like picking out my very own treat for the afternoon!
