Eerie Indiana Drabble: Hothouse

[froodle]

"Winter berries," said Bertram Wilson, making a careful rotation of the huge, off-white confection that occupied pride of place beside a neat stack of freshly-washed kitchen utensils. "That's a bold choice in the middle of August."

"I like how the blackberries look against the cream," said Tod.

"Very fresh," Ernest observed. He exchanged a glance with his twin. "Do I detect the helping hand of Weatherman Wally and some out-of-season climate control at work?"

"He also likes blackberries," Tod allowed. "And autumn."

Bert and Ernie examined the enormous trifle for a few more moments before nodding.

"Who doesn't?" they asked.
