Once upon a time, in a quiet countryside cottage surrounded by apple trees and daisies, lived a cheerful woodcutter named Tom and his curious wife, Ella. They didn’t have much—just a small fireplace, a tiny garden, and a squeaky old cat named Muffin—but they were happy and full of laughter. 🪵🏡🐱
One chilly morning, as Tom was chopping firewood in the forest, he heard a strange buzzing sound—like the flutter of a thousand tiny wings. Suddenly, a sparkly little fairy appeared, caught in a spider’s web! Her wings twinkled like stars, and her voice was as soft as a breeze. “Please help me!” she squeaked. ✨🧚♀️🕸️
Tom carefully freed her. “There you go, little one. Safe and sound.”
The fairy hovered in front of him and said, “You have a kind heart, Tom. As thanks, I grant you and your wife three wishes—any three things you want!”
Before Tom could say a word, poof!—she vanished in a sprinkle of glitter. 🌟🌬️🎁
Excited, Tom sprinted home and told Ella everything. “Three wishes!” she gasped. “This is our lucky day!”
They sat by the fire and started dreaming big. “We could wish for a golden castle!” Ella said. “Or endless riches!”
But before they decided, Tom’s tummy growled loudly. “Gosh, I’m so hungry,” he muttered. “I wish I had a big, juicy sausage right now!”
POOF!
A sizzling sausage appeared out of thin air, landing right on the dinner plate. 🐖🔥😋
Ella’s mouth dropped open. “A sausage?! You used our first wish on a sausage?!”
Tom blushed. “I didn’t mean to! It just… slipped out.”
Furious, Ella cried, “Well, I wish that sausage was stuck to your nose so you’d learn a lesson!”
POOF! 😱👃🌭
Now poor Tom had a sausage dangling from his nose like a giant wiggly worm. He tugged, yanked, and twisted, but it wouldn’t come off!
Ella gasped. “Oh no! What have I done?!”
They looked at each other in silence.
After a long sigh, Ella chuckled, “Well, we have one wish left. Should we wish for treasure?”
Tom shook his head with the sausage still stuck to his face. “I don’t want to live with a sausage-nose forever!”
So, with a small giggle and a smile, Ella whispered, “I wish the sausage was off Tom’s nose.” POOF! And just like that, it vanished. 🌈🪄😄
They both burst out laughing.
“Three wishes,” Tom said, wiping his nose. “And all we got was a sausage!”
“But maybe that’s the real magic,” Ella grinned. “We didn’t need gold or castles. We have each other—and some very funny memories!”
From that day on, Tom and Ella became famous in the village as the couple who got three wishes and used them in the silliest way possible. Kids would ask to hear the story again and again, and Tom would always end it by saying:
“Be careful what you wish for… especially when you’re hungry!” 😂🥖✨
