it was, almost, a miracle

there we were, at breakfast, when the Littler Munchkin found it.
A rice krispie of an astounding configuration

It was shaped, just exactly, like a Thor's Hammer.



I kid you not. It was uncanny.

(No, silly, not the USS Thor's Hammer, rice krispies can't do that).

We deliberated for a while, and finally decided the only right thing to do was to sell it on eBay. The Greater Munchkin was just about to go get a camera when the Littler Munchkin got bored and ate it.

Fortunately, shortly afterwards the Greater Munchkin found another rice krispie, this one shaped just like a duckie.
We kept that one.

Should we put it on eBay?
The beak crumbled a bit, but it still does look remarkably like a duckie.
